The grid is 9 cells high by 9 cells wide and within the grid are 9 boxes each featuring 9 cells. The object is to fill in the numbers 1-9 in each row, column and box, but they must only appear in each one once. Astraware Sudoku is suitable for players of all abilities and features include 6 levels of difficulty, pencilmarks in a choice of styles, optional completion and tracking of pencilmarks, a unique and innovative notepad which enables players to make handwritten notes and sketches overlaid upon the grid, and an advanced hint system to assist you by highlighting areas where progress can be made without giving away the answer."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Temporale-20051027-AstraSudoku.gif" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />I wish they had a better screenshot that showed off the board and some of the features. It boasts some pretty nice features like support for QVGA, pencil markings, a integrated solver, download more puzzles, and create your own. If you're a Sudoku player, or your interested in mind puzzles, this looks like it could be a great Smartphone version. I'll be downloading the trial later tonight to see if its puzzles are any match for me!
