Happened to me too! Simon got me hooked, now I play a killer sudoku everyday (bathroom breaks turned into sudoku breaks basically).

Any app you recommend? The one I use is good, but it's not challenging enough now.

I guess it's not clear if you don't know me elsewhere, but I'm the one who set that particular puzzle. :)

When I solve, it's mostly puzzles on the CTC Fan Server (discord). I spend way more time setting and theorizing than I do solving, though. Even when I do solve, most of it is testing for GAS (Genuinely Approachable Sudoku), as the setters test each others' puzzles. (I do have a couple of the CTC apps though - Classic and Sandwich.)

If anyone wants to go really in depth with advanced sudoku techniques, I've been doing a youtube series with rangsk (who has also featured on CTC, but has his own channel mostly doing live solving streams): Link (I don't really recommend starting from episode 1 here if you've never solved much sudoku! rangsk has done a "Learn to Love Sudoku" series which explains some simpler techniques.)
Whaaaaaaat I remember doing that particular sudoku when the video came out and got the Cream reference too! mith I think I've dedicated too much time on things that you've done, you don't have a cooking show do you?
