In case you haven't, let me introduce you:
Rules:
- Place numbers in the grid, only single digit numbers (1-9)
- The numbers must add up to the marker at the top or to the left
- Each number in a block must be different, so if you have to add up two numbers to 8 - you can only use 1&7, 2&6, 3&5, but not 4&4.
Hint: it is easy to start with cells you know at least the combination. So starting with a 4 is good because it can only be 1&3 for example.
Some places you can play on the net:
- Kakuro Live
- Kakuro San
- And obviously the place I got the puzzle from: Kakuro Puzzle

Hi Katey Kate :)
Glad you liked it.
Kisses.
You can also get them in Dell Math and Logic Puzzles magazine. Dell also sells whole magazines of them, but call them Cross Sums.
I love puzzles. This is great.
Thanks Heather, I'll take a look.

I'm math impaired and must stick to crosswords, but I'll send the links on to my husband. He'll love 'em.
Thanks Anon.
And Pat, say hi to him from me, will you???
Yeah, I heard kakuro is just as if not more addictive than sudoku.
I am still trying to figure out what a Sudoku is..
Oh My God!
Not another great, fun, time wasting internet thingy , , ,
Runs Screaming!

Phoenix, it's pretty addictive, but I think I still prefer the Sudoku.
Fred, even BlogExplosion has Sudokus you can play right there, if you ever feel like figuring it out...
Paul, I hear ya :)
It seems that each week I find something else to distract me from my work ;)
