Reviewer: Lisa Shea "LisaShea.com" (Massachusetts) - See all my reviews We love Sudoku. We play it online quite a lot, and use the Brain Age version of Sudoku frequently as well. We thought it'd be great to have a PSP game solely dedicated to Sudoku. Unfortunately, the Go! Sudoku implementation was poor. First off, about the gameplay in general. You get a Sudoku board, can choose from puzzles of various difficulties, and can choose a background theme. Once you play a game on a given profile, that's it. You can't play it again. Since you rarely "memorize" a board, it seems a shame not to let you replay it without resetting everything. Next, part of how you play Sudoku is by marking the "possibles" in a given square until you figure out what it really should be. In the Brain Age version, you can do that. Here, you can't. Your only choice is to turn on "help" which then marks ALL possibles on the entire board, all the time. With help turned on, all you do is look at the board for the square with only 1 possible in it, and put that number there. Then the board updates and you look for the next square with only 1 possible in it. It's not a game at all. They should have let you put in possibles yourself, instead of making you try to juggle that all in your head. The game has a really annoying redraw problem. Every 10 minutes or so, the game freezes with a "please wait" message that sits there for perhaps 30 seconds. Then it lets you play some more. So you might be right in the middle of doing something, and suddenly you have to twiddle your thumbs until it unfreezes. Apparently this has to do with battery charge - and the lower your battery gets, the more frequently the pop-up comes up. It counts the 'freeze time' against your total time to solve, too. Bad, bad, bad. If you type in a wrong number, it IMMEDIATELY tells you that number is wrong. This makes no sense in Sudoku. Part of the challenge is to follow a road until you get stuck, then to backtrack and figure out what you did wrong. It's like a crossword puzzle or a maze. To just flag you immediately loses that aspect of the solving. This is one of the only games that I've played that I completely DO NOT recommend at all. If you want to play Sudoku, buy another game. Don't buy this one.Read full review
i love doing these puzzles and my wife pointed it out to me and i thought about it for awhile then i desided i will give it a try and if i didn't like it i could always sell it. once i put it in the psp i loved it and play it everyday just so i can get my sudoku kick lol. the games just as the seller described. I love that the games is easy to get ahang of and that it is hard enough but not to hard and keeps me thinking these the exact type of games i like the kind that makes me think no matter the style of the games. i also like that you can change th back ground and if you can figure it out you can alo add your own pics for the background. but i am still learning all of the things you can do with the psp. over all i love the game and recommend this game for anyone who likes any type of puzzle games and sudoku lover.Read full review
Go! Sudoku, is an interactive experience that requires gamers to place numbers inside a grid so that every column, every row and every box contains the number one to nine only once. Go! Sudoku contains 1,000 puzzles in four single-player difficulty levels, along with many multiplayer modes. GET ADDICTED. This game should be in every puzzle fan's collection! TONS of replay value for this great number game AND you can take it on the go with you anywhere. -- A Review Written by GameGo, an eBay store -- --visit stores.ebay.com/gamego for this game and hundreds more. --
If you enjoy SUDOKU! This game is a must have if you have the PSP... I've been playing this game along with others, when I've gotten bored these past few days. Instead of writing your numbers in the boxed spaced you have, you select the number you believe it is. If it's wrong you'll have to try again.. A+ Game... One thing I dislike about this is that once you finish a puzzle, it automatically saves your information (stats). However that isn't important the game is. The gameplay, overall is GOOD!!!
I bought this game because my daughter loves Sudoku and we wanted to provide her with a game for her new PSP that she would really enjoy and play with more than once. Loved the price and the availability. The game was very hard to find in the store. My daughter loves the different choices she has in setting up the game before she plays the game. She likes to be able to choose easy, or hard, air or earth, and her options in players.
