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
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.
