This is a no-longer-in-production hand held, battery powered, lights up at night electronic game, circa 2005-06. Exactly what I wanted. NIB and the mfr’s batteries even yet had power, although after 2 days I replaced them. It’s great to play when I wake up in the middle of the night and need to distract my mind from all that I need to do in the coming day. Promptly shipped and well packed. And oh yeah, after 13 years my old one finally started having input problems. 😊

A previous model that I have had for 8 yrs. eventually started malfunctioning so, in my hast to find an exact replacement, I didn't realize, until I received it, that this model does not back light like my original one. It also uses button batteries instead of AAA like my original. It operates a bit differently in that an individual number at the bottom doesn't always go out after the last of that number is entered in a correct square. Haven't figured out whether that is supposed to happen or not. Otherwise, I guess it is working fine. I received the item in great condition and when promised.

I have bought several of these over the years. I think they're fun, but they don't last very well. Because I like the way they work, and I'm used to them, I keep buying the when they tear up. I use it every day.

I had my first one of these exact games for 12 years before it finally tweaked and stopped working. Pretty awesome considering it was originally only $15 bucks new back then AND I play it every night before going to sleep (relaxes me and clears my mind).

I could just copy "Not what I expected but my bad". I also had one I had for at least 8 years like that review that had a "night light" button so I could play at night. I too also prefer a AAA battery. Some of the number spaces do not show the complete number, so it doesn't work properly. It is also slow turning on and since it is not back lit like my previous one I can't see it well enough even to play it during the day. As far as the shipping- it was prompt and also well packed. I have not had great experiences with EBAY and prefer to not shop there anymore but thought I would try it one more time.

I have owned one for years. I play it everyday. I bought this just as a backup because I have had it for many years now and I didn't want to be without it. It is hard to find them in the stores these days.

Mine works great as I play it every night before sleeping. I had had the original batteries in it for years...they finally corroded the battery base...but I just cleaned the base, replaced the batteries, and back to playing. I just don't remember what the 'N' in the box at the top (part of the word DONE) does???

I have been playing this particular game at night when I go to bed for years. My game finally stopped working. I ordered another one from this company. The entire bottom row of boxes puts strange marks for numbers inside each box. You can't even tell what the number is. It does not work. I'm so disappointed in this purchase.

Lots of fun and I love all the features: various difficulty levels, backlight or not, sound or not. The size is great. Just a fun brain game that's easy to use, and can be altered for difficulty.

This is the best portable Sudoku player available. I bought this as a replacement as mine has portions of the screen that aren't responsive. There are 100,000 puzzles included and you can even input your own to solve. You can use the Notes feature to put several numbers in a box as a "placeholder" while you try to solve the puzzle. You can pause the game, adjust contrast, turn on and off the sound, and display the solution. The illumination really helps in low and no light conditions.
