This invention relates to the field of game device technology and discloses a Sudoku game device, which includes a base, a game board, and a support member. The base has a first receiving groove with its opening facing upwards. The game board is disposed above the first receiving groove, and its side facing away from the first receiving groove has multiple placement grooves for placing game pieces. One end of the support member is hinged to the base, and the other end of the support member is hinged to the game board, so that the game board has a first state and a second state. When the game board is in the first state, a predetermined angle is formed between the game board and the plane containing the opening of the first receiving groove. When the game board is in the second state, the game board covers the opening of the first receiving groove. Based on the above structure, there is no need to look down to observe when playing the game, which is more ergonomic and less likely to cause neck discomfort, resulting in a better user experience. Secondly, the way the support member is hinged to the base and the game board respectively makes the movement of the game board more flexible, and the cleaning and storage of game pieces more convenient.
