20 new puzzles, 100 puzzles total!
I love this app so much. I check almost daily for an update. Thermometer Sudoku is definitely my favorite variation and I cannot get enough of it! Update day is always highly anticipated. Every Cracking the Cryptic app is wonderful. I own all 4 and have completed every puzzle published on each to date, but in my heart none of them can compete with Thermo. I find myself frequently going back to already solved puzzles to solve them again. I also really love that the hints don’t just fill in a number but rather explain the logic behind each move so you can learn to solve it. The latest update had the most beautiful puzzles yet. They were truly breathtaking and gorgeous to solve. All my love to Mark, Simon, and the team behind this app. All parties involved are breathtakingly talented.
Incredible app. Full of beautiful puzzles, and you can tell each one is hand crafted to follow a logical path. The hints are well written too, giving you just enough to get back on track, but not spoiling too much and allowing you to feel like you’ve still cracked a tough one! Input method is very well designed as well, and I have very large fingers, so that’s always an issue.
I really enjoy doing sudoku on this software, and I enjoy the Thermo puzzles, up to the point where they get too hard. Puzzle #79 is ridiculously hard. I got as far as could, starting looking at hints and could not get past the fourth hint, i understand what it’s trying to say but it doesn’t fit the puzzle and no progress can be made from this hint unless you just take it on faith you should remove the candidates it says to. I think if people want super hard puzzles they can find them on their own, no need to include such convoluted logic in a mass marketed app. I have had this trouble with other cracking the cryptic apps too, the last few puzzles are just stupid hard and make me wanna shoot myself in the head
This is the fourth app I have now downloaded on my iPad/iPhone and enjoy everyone of them. The sandwich sudoku seems to be the hardest of the lot and the classic one is just that - classic. I have just done a few of the thermo sudoku and again wish the hints would not totally overlay the puzzle itself. I wish it were just in one of the corners with smaller font size.

I just recently discovered Thermo sudoku and this app is great for solving simple to complex puzzles. The hints are a great feature as it helps you solve the puzzles without giving you the straight forward answers, they make you think logically on how to solve step by step. Worth every penny spent. Looking forward to updates and new puzzles!
Love the content of this app, but I liked it more before the latest update. The look and feel of this new version seems like a step backwards from what it was before. The actual gameplay is great and unchanged from previous, but it’s the menu layout that I find unsatisfactory. Ultimately not a huge deal, but it’s frustrating when it was fine as it was.
While I haven’t had this game for very long I’m a huge fan of it, only done about 10 levels so far and still chugging. I’m only concerned that there are 40 levels but who knows how long they’ll take me :). I’m not even a huge sudoku fan and I’m addicted. Again with hopefully more levels in the future it’s a great pickup.
I love thermo sudoku and Cracking the Cryptic. Was looking forward to lots of thermos. But it’s not fun solving a couple of thermometers easily and then just having classic sudoku left to solve/fill in before you can progress to a more complex one. Didn’t even complete the first puzzle—too boring. The others might be good, but I’ll never know because the app won’t let me access them. I wish I could access them! Would love to give 5 stars!
