Description & Game Features

The most all-inclusive Kakuro game on the market, Buku Kakuro ships with a built-in tutorial, three difficulty levels, a robust puzzle generator, as well as options that let you save, print and e-mail games. You can also display hints, highlight errors, undo moves, and solve puzzles step-by-step. The Cross Sums, or Kakuro as it is called in Japan, is a very common type of logic puzzle that is often referred to as a mathematical transliteration of the crossword. For those who were overcome by last year Sudoku madness, this is something fresh for you to try. Here the goal is the same: to figure out the unique solution by filling all empty cells with numbers from 1 through 9 using the given clues. The given clues are actually the sum of each segment. They are found above each column segment and to the left of each row segment. Using numbers from 1 through 9, the task is to fill in each segment of cells without repeating the same number in a segment.
