I gave Zen of Sudoku a thumbs down, but that does not mean it is a bad game overall. The game does many things well. Pros: - The difficulty progression is well balanced, offering an enjoyable challenge for both casual and experienced Sudoku players. - The graphics are fairly basic, but they suit this type of game well. - The soundtrack is also relaxing and helps create a calm atmosphere. Cons: However, there are a few issues that significantly impact the experience. - The music becomes repetitive during longer play sessions. - There is no option to change the screen resolution or UI scaling, which makes the game appear very small when played on a television. - In addition, the assistant that highlights cells cannot be disabled, which limits the ability to play the game exactly as I would prefer. Overall, Zen of Sudoku is a solid Sudoku game with good puzzle design and a relaxing presentation. With a few quality-of-life improvements, especially regarding display options and gameplay customization, it would be much more enjoyable.

This games only needs around of 14 mb disc space unlike the other, free Sudoku games here and offers even to us nice background graphics and relaxing background sounds (water, bird sounds, etc.). The fact that this game works even in offline mode is another big plus point, which is the reason why I can highly recommend it to all Sudoku fans here on Steam! Not even an emulator was necessary for me to run this game on Linux and it offers a printing options, if you would prefer to play this game in real life with pen and paper during trips, etc.
