Put your neurons into action 16 difficulty levels for beginners to experts. And lots of tools if you're stuck on a difficult puzzle More than 3800 grids of the best puzzle-game available. Kakuro (also called Kakkuro, kakro, cross sums or カックロ), is a logic game that consists of filling in a grid of numbers, in the same way as a crossword puzzle. If you enjoyed Sudoku logic, you'll love Kakuro's puzzles As with Sudoku, the rules of Kakuro are simple and can be learned in a few minutes. All you need to do is make simple additions to put your logic to the test. Kakuro Plus offers 15 different game levels and 200 puzzles per level: It will probably take you more than a couple of hundred hours, and a lot of logic to get these 2800 puzzles finished. As with Sudoku or crosswords, each puzzle has a unique solution. It is up to you to find it using your logic and perspicacity. This version of Kakuro ++ allows you : • To access all the 2800 Kakuro puzzles. • To begin and progress, some puzzles have been specially designed for beginners. Their small size and difficulty levels is suitable for first-time players. • To access grids of any level. The 15 game levels provide a smooth progression, from beginner to logic expert. • Annotate the table, to record assumptions and move forward in complicated cases. • To go back: there is a "UNDO" button to cancel up to 100 actions. Don't be afraid to test your assumptions anymore. • To enjoy high definition graphics for maximum readability. This version of Kakuro ++ adds unique features: • An automatic deletion of unnecessary assumptions, when one of them is no longer logical. • A help system, which offers you several possibilities: • Check if your grid has errors, without showing them to you. This allows you to remove a doubt, without providing you with the solution. • Show you where the mistakes are. • Give you a hint, which will allow you to move forward in difficult cases. • A visualization of all possible combinations of a clue. A color set shows you the possible logical values. The Kakuro rules: • Your goal is to fill in the grid with numbers from 1 to 9 like a crossword puzzle. • The clues tell you the amount to be reached in each group of horizontal or vertical boxes. • As with Sudoku or crosswords, you will win when the game board is fully filled, without any mistakes. Feel free to send me your comments (via the app) so that future versions will be even more attractive. Good Kakuro to all of you!

High quality implementation

EDIT: I found the “missing” feature I mentioned below (tap the ? icon), so I can now endorse this game fully. I like the overall design and play mechanics. However, the game gives hints that I don’t want like displaying the possible number combinations for the active cell, and highlighting mistakes. This would be fine if there was an option to turn these features off, but there isn’t. I hope options are added in future versions, then I may revisit this game, since I really love solving Kakuro (but not with hints).

Best Kakuro app I’ve seen so far

I’m used to doing “Killer Kakuro” books with large puzzles and this app is the only app I’ve seen so far that has promise. To the makers: can you make a setting option to have the number pads on opposite sides? aka so the number pad to input square possibilities (little numbers) is on the left while the number pad to enter the answer would be on the right? I would pay for an app that had bigger puzzles. If y’all make it happen, I’ll pay for the upgrade.

What a wonderful “temper” management game. Currently, on level 8. As a mathematician, this is a fun diversion, especially in a waiting room; or any situation where a diversion is desirable. Your set up is well-done & easy to use. Thank you.

I like the game but..

Good game but 1) It has ads which are supposed to be videos but only point to a web site which doesn’t provide to any path to allow a game to be played at that level.2) I cannot find anything that explains what the checkmark with a number signifies and how it works to help one find an error.

This release fixes a bug: the help functions didn't work properly on some smartphones, and gave incorrect information. Please write to me (kakuro@gameproject.com) if you have been affected by this problem. Many apologies.
