OpenSudoku (cz.romario.opensudoku) - To archive or not to archive
Searching for "open sudoku" [1] results in two hits looking pretty similar:
From an end user perspective it's pretty confusing to see two applications with almost identical names (the space between Open and Sudoku is the only difference). According to the feedback on GooglePlay some of the features in the older/initial OpenSudoku broke with the latest updates of Android [2].

The author of cz.romario.opensudoku
did not implement the successor org.moire.opensudoku
[6], nevertheless I propose to archive cz.romario.opensudoku
to not confuse end users offering two almost identical apps.
