Fun concept! I like it. I slightly found it a bit too easy, or maybe I misunderstood something, but possibly the difficulty ramp up should be a bit quicker?

Hi all!

After months of tinkering, I’m excited to share Sudecku, a mashup of the classic Sudoku logic with a deck of rule‑bending power cards. Inspired by Cracking the Cryptic variants, it adds strategy without losing those clean cell-filling moments.

In Sudecku, you get to solve Sudoku with cards, the constraint being you can only have a specific number of cards in your hand. But you also get to play power cards to bend the rules a bit, at the cost of your final score.

This is my first personal iOS app, built in Swift with SpriteKit. Huge thanks to my wife for relentless playtesting, great ideas, and the name, Sudecku!

The game is paid ($4.99), no IAP or ads though.

I’d love your feedback, bug reports, and ideas for new cards/variants!

Hey! Would you consider making an 8-direction version of this? For a higher price of course
