JamieW223: prestige system is not broken. Note that it varies depending on the money you have in cash (the first value, at the top of the screen, on the left). So, when you want to prestige, don't spend the money you've accumulated on upgrades. The more cash on hand, the greater the value you will get if you do prestige. Similarly, the less cash you have, the lower will be the additional value obtained, if you prestige.

I regret that there have been no updates since January, as I see enormous development potential.
IMHO here are some suggestions that could be implemented...
1) the most painful thing is certainly to fill the function and values of the houses. It took almost two hours to fill a 24x24 grid, and the work was time consuming and repetitive. To solve this, it would suffice, for example, to allow multiple houses to be filled with the same number or with the same function (buyer, melter or seller).
Also, allow to write all the number!
2) the 3x3 anti-clicker is practically useless. The gain provided by it is not compensatory. I would suggest attributing to 3x3 the gains offered by 6x6. At 6x6 the gains offered by 9x9 and at 9x9 an additional multiplier to factory sales, even if minimal.
3) iT would be interesting to propose other patterns to try, for example, squares, spirals, diagonals, not only rows or colluns etc ..
Please, developer, update this game.
It has potential!

I really LiKe where this one is going.
Will be dropping in occasionally since I got a 10x10 grid and that's enough repetition for me.
Love to see it grow bigger but not with the current manually setting of stuff :P

love the game its just very slow, the idea is there and the math for solve make sure its solved correctly but i feel its missing something.

Cute game. I agree with the recommendation/request to color (assign) multiple blocks by clicking and dragging and please expand the directions. I look forward to seeing what you develop for the research tab!

The 9x9 should have an upgrade (or not) that when u complete a number it gets highlighted. Its an obvious thing but still
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
@Rakikan: the 9x9 GIVES you free workers without increasing the cost of the next worker. since at some point workers become very expensive its effect is then a lot more than the 6x6 ones. it allows you to get larger factory sizes before needing to prestige. wich if you fill it out right gives you more money per sale. with my last prestige at 4.71E9 I currently get 8.81E21 mony per second (23x23 grid in my factory) without the 9x9 free workers that would have been 3-4 times less.

It's a good concept, and I look forward to future updates that will refine and expand the game. Right now, I'm getting virtually nothing from sand ($25/sec), and get $3,000/ 3x3. Since the 3x3's are faster, limitless, and ever expanding, it makes no sense for me to focus on glass.

"Prestige" gives Prestige Points according to the Money you currently have. This is a permanent Glass selling price bonus. If this is high enough, you will be able to benefit enough from the few workers you have right after Prestige.

While Prestige is low, you need to clear 3x3 of "Anti-Clicker (Earn $)" several times.
3x3 will provide the displayed amount for each clear. Unassigned workers can be assigned here, increasing the 3x3 Sudoku clearing reward every second. This is really only needed at the very beginning.
6x6 will earn "Money p / sec" obtained by the worker assigned to "Sudoku Factory" in an amount equal to the time shown in the clear reward column. For example, if the clear reward is "Travel 6 minutes on time per win" and your "Money p / sec" is "$ 1", the actual clear reward for 6x6Sudoku will be $ 180.
If you get enough Prestige and have a lot of income per second, you can get a much bigger amount than 3x3.
9x9 will no longer increase the employment cost of a worker until hiring the indicated number of people. Personally I don't think this is very useful.

@Lympathy(1/3)
You have at the start of the game "Sudoku Factory" with 3x3 cells, a few workers randomly fixed in two cells and four workers freely assigned.
The factory cell will be a workshop for the same number of workers as the number written. To enter a number in a factory cell, you need an unassigned worker for that number.
At the start of the game, there are fixed workers in the cells surrounded by dotted lines and filled with numbers. Workers in this cell cannot be used in other cells. Fixed cells are reset each time you Prestige.
Just because workers are assigned to cells, they do nothing. You must specify a role.
Buyer (blue) consumes Money to buy Sand, Melting (red) processes Sand into Glass, and Seller (yellow) sells Glass to earn Money.
Workers are also free to assign roles to fixed cells.
Basically they do one job per second per person. "Upgrades" can increase the amount of work per second.

adding a way to increase all occurrences of a certain number by 1 worker (say increase all 15 to 16) would be a major quality of life increase once you start getting into larger fields. or even have the + key work to increase the selected field by 1 (or by a number you can type somewhere).
It would also be nice to be able to change an entire row or column to seller (or buyer/melter). if its easier changing the entire field to one role would help too.

I know how to play Sudoku and I play idol games but I just have no idea how to start this game, I just click everywhere? Where are the instructions?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Now that I have played a bit further another extremely annoying thing about the factory is that you can't type in any number 10 or higher into the cells... Please fix.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I'm glad you showed your understanding about hiring many workers. I have to suggest some other to you.
1. Increasing Row / Columns will rapidly increase the number of cells to set, but I need twice as many clicks to set it. You can only change the currently selected cell and change its function with a click. You should be able to move cells with WASD or arrow keys and set actions with one of the letter keys, or change multiple cells at once by dragging or holding down the Ctrl key and clicking.
2. The cost of expanding Sand / Glass capacity appears to be too expensive compared to the cost of adding cells. I currently have 8x8 cells and use 8x3 = 24 cells. Sand / Glass capacity is around 290 each, and there is plenty of room for updates to increase rates, but there is no point in buying it. Something needs to be done, such as increasing the cost of capacity expansion more slowly or unlocking a larger unit of capacity expansion when certain conditions are reached.

@JeremymiaGames >"What does "earnings per win per second" mean in the anti-clicker tab?" Assigning a worker to a 3x3 Anti-Clicker will increase the 3x3 Anti-ClickerSudoku clear reward at the rate stated there. This is useful only when Prestige is very low. If you have enough Prestige, 3x3 is no longer needed at all. You can make enough money with two fixed cells and four workers at Sudoku Factory shortly after a reset by Prestige.

Buying new rows/columns in the factory is infuriating purely because of how tedious it is to pick roles for the new cells. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE add click and drag or some way to apply it to multiple cells.

In the Anti-Clicker section, it'd be really nice if we could move the active space around with the arrow/WASD keys along with entering the numbers via keyboard. Especially for those of us who have cats that like to claim control of one of our arms while we play games.

The multipliers for production are unclear. It doesn't change production values, so, how are we supposed to know how to maximize productive capacity?

the fact that there often comes a point where you just have to guess a number because you cant continue only with logic is really bad. also the interface could need some improvement.

Eventually, the 6*6 manual puzzles become orders of magnitude more powerful than the 3*3 puzzles, even if the 3*3 takes as little as 6 seconds.

This is a somewhat monotonous game at the moment, but a fun enough game.
By the way, players need to hire a significant number of new workers to gain more cells and take advantage of them. Can't we hire multiple workers together?

The help section definitely needs some work, I have no idea what I can do in this thing besides filling in sudokus of 3 different sizes.

Some of your puzzles are not well formed. They have incomplete clues which lead to multiple solutions. Very frustrating. E.g., https://imgur.com/a/6KwbzFz

there's just no hint left and i aint gonna play it with a 50/50 uncertainty! >:O

UI is horrible, no option to color multiple cells at once and even their action is hidden in a drop down box which increase unnecessary clicking even further
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
add a way for us to put numbers in the box like possibilities. So like if I think this box is a 5 or a 2, allow us to mark that without leaving it blank so we can go back in and evaluate later
