Talking Zen of Sudoku - Gameplay

I made a video on YouTube about this game!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybGzKj_obUg

PLs sub, Like, and comment!! Thanks!!

My review of it:

If you love Sudoku then this is a game for you! It really helps you to learn the game and master your skills for when you hit real life and put it on paper. It is a very addicting game and I cannot put it down when I start. The music is very relaxing and it really puts you in the zone for thinking mathematically ,horizontally, and vertically. If you don't want to have dementia when you are older in age then keep playing this game and you will be alright. Avoid Dementia!!

How many puzzles does this game have? Is it like Everyday Genius that has like 28,000 puzzles that will last you a lifetime or is it like 100 puzzles broken up in the different categories. Looking for a good sudoku game, but would hate to get something that nets me less puzzles than just buying a book of the things.

Well i already have 40 hours in this game its a great Sudoku game. Its really relaxing and well done, it has achievements. It has alot of different levels, you can even put Sudoku puzzles from the news paper into the game and solve it. You can turn off and on the setting to tell you if you made a mistake. Its a great Sudoku game for the computer.

I imagine this is manually or is this automated in some way?

(I'm already sold on the game as I do love sudoku, but would love more information on this feature before I buy later today)

It generates a new puzzle every time, you won't ever get a repeat. There is a free demo you could try as well

It's superior to pencil and paper in a lot of ways. Screenshot showing pencil marks and highlighting It lets you fill in "pencil marks" (when you put in small numbers to show all possible numbers that can be in each square), you can press a number key and it will highlight all of that number, you can get it to warn you if you make a mistake, or you can turn off highlighting and warnings and all that if you think it's cheating, there's a lot of flexibility.

But the biggest advantage is you don't have to mess up your puzzle with a pencil and an eraser scrubbing letters out

It's manually. It gives you a blank grid to begin entering numbers into. "Use the mouse to enter a puzzle from a newspaper, web site or other source. Once Zen of Sudoku finds a unique solution for your puzzle, you will be able to play it."

Once you've put enough numbers in that there is a valid solution and only one valid solution it pops up with a box saying 'You now have a valid puzzle with a unique solution. Enter additional numbers or press the "Play" button to start.'
