Sudoku Master
Sudoku Master, un jeu de réflexion et de puzzle, est paru le 10 avril 2021 sur PlayStation 4 et Nintendo Switch. Ce titre développé par Benoit Varasse et édité par Pix Arts propose un casse-tête logique basé sur les chiffres.
Le but du jeu est de placer les numéros 1 à 9 dans chaque case pour que chaque chiffre n'apparaisse qu'une seule fois dans chaque ligne, colonne et mini-grille. L'expérience permet de jouer quand on le souhaite, à différents niveaux de difficulté, et d'apprendre des techniques de sudoku.
La presse a partagé plusieurs avis sur le produit. Times Online a ainsi salué le fait que « It’s good, simple and highly addictive, though if you have a pen and a copy of The Times, it may be surplus to requirements. » Pour sa part, Digital Entertainment News a déclaré que « Sudoku Gridmaster is, in a way, both the best and the worst sudoku videogame on the market. It provides the best straightforward, “I just want to play” game of… », des citations qui reflètent des opinions critiques et non des caractéristiques objectives du jeu.

« It’s good, simple and highly addictive, though if you have a pen and a copy of The Times, it may be surplus to requirements. »
« Sudoku Gridmaster is, in a way, both the best and the worst sudoku videogame on the market. It provides the best straightforward, “I just want to play” game of sudoku out there, but at the same time, it’s severely lacking in the options department. »
« This game has everything a Sudoku enthusiast could possibly want – namely, hundreds upon hundreds of puzzles ranging in difficulty from quite easy, to frustratingly difficult. »
« It's unfortunate that the handwriting recognition portion of the touch-screen controls is largely broken (thank goodness it's optional!) and the presentation is as bland as can be, featuring only three generic background color choices and music tracks each, but even so, Sudoku Gridmaster offers a ton of content and just enough addictive gameplay to make any sudoku fan smile with glee. »
« With a fairly drab presentation and a subpar interface, Sudoku Gridmaster is a pretty weak package. »
« Sudoku Gridmaster can't even figure a creative way of using the second screen, other than duplicating the same exact grid that's interactive on the touch screen. »
« If 400 puzzles sounds like more Sudoku than you could ever want, much less need, I highly recommend Nintendo's own "Brain Age" as a superior alternative. It includes only 100 puzzles, but the interface is significantly better, and you get all the Brain Age stuff in addition to Sudoku, which is really just a side offering in that game. »
« With "Brain Age" on the market already, which offers not only a large selection of puzzles, but also more variety of compelling content, there simply is nothing that makes Sudoku Gridmaster stand out as a worthwhile purchase. »
