Fill empty squares in Kakuro so that each block sums up to the number on its left or on its top. Each puzzle consists of a blank grid with sum-clues in various places. The objective is to fill all empty squares using numbers 1 to 9 so that the sum of each horizontal block equals the clue on its left, and the sum of each vertical block equals the clue on its top. Additionally, no number can be used in the same block more than once.
Kakuro is an addictive logic puzzle that can be described as a number-crossword. By using pure logic and simple add/subtract calculations, these fascinating puzzles provide endless fun and intellectual entertainment for puzzle enthusiasts of all skill levels and ages.
The game offers helpful features such as zoom for easier solving of large puzzles, displaying possible sum combinations in a block, showing the sum remainder of a block, and using pencilmarks to make temporary number placements in the grid.
To keep track of puzzle progress, graphic previews in the puzzle list display the progress of all puzzles in a volume as they are being solved. A Gallery view option is also available to provide larger previews.
For added enjoyment, Conceptis Kakuro includes a Weekly Bonus section, offering an extra free puzzle each week.
