Friday, July 6th, 2007

Sudoku Daily takes the gameplay of Sudoku Puzzler Vol. 1 & Sudoku Puzzler Vol. 2, but downloads new sudoku puzzles every day.

It comes with 15 puzzles to start.Then every day, a new puzzle automatically appears:

As long as you don’t “Discard” the Sudoku Daily application, you’ll continue to receive new puzzles. Even if you’ve “Uninstalled” it from your device temporarily, you can re-install Sudoku Daily later on and still play the puzzles for the days you missed.

Sudoku Daily can only store 40 puzzles on-device at a time, though, so once you’ve completed a built-in or downloaded puzzle, you’ll probably want to remove it. Later on, you can restore any puzzle you’ve removed:

This allows easier one-handed play using just the wheel, for those sudoku-filled train or bus rides.
