## Kakuro Description
Fill empty squares so 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 object is to fill all empty squares using numbers 1 to 9 so 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. In addition, no number may be used in the same block more than once.

Kakuro are addictive logic puzzles best described as number-crosswords. Using pure logic and simple add/subtract calculations, these fascinating puzzles offer endless fun and intellectual entertainment to puzzle fans of all skills and ages.

The game includes zoom for easier solving of large puzzles, as well as helpful features such as showing possible sum combinations in a block, showing the sum remainder of a block, and using pencilmarks to make temporary placement of numbers in the grid.

To help see the puzzle progress, graphic previews in the puzzle list show the progress of all puzzles in a volume as they are being solved. A Gallery view option provides these previews in a larger format.

## Kakuro Reviews in United States

### ***** "Lovely puzzle game"
Great puzzle game, lots of replay, available offline
-- Gyrfalconeer, 2024-12-29

### ***** "Feels like an app you’re happy to support"
Truly no ads, help when and where you want it, good ui, and challenging levels for every range of the skill spectrum. 10/10, there is no way to do better.
-- pickle urkegrjejrhjdnrhr, 2024-12-25

### ***** "Amazing Game and App"
I love it. It’s perfect. I can’t think of any way to improve it.
-- Orange Rhyming Dictionary, 2024-04-15

### ****- "Love the puzzles"
Just wish they priced additional puzzles a little lower. Maybe bundle a package for a discount. To offer dozens of packs at $2-3 a pop is a little over my price point
-- allnamestaken24, 2024-02-29

### ***** "Bruh it’s so good"
I literally love this game. The fact that it has no ads is, like, 🥳.  Plus it’s free. Download this game! It’s amazing! plus it makes you smarter. Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
-- Static0Sus, 2024-01-12

### ***** "Must download!"
Just found out about kakuro today, and it’s much more fun than sudoku! This game also doesn’t have any ads, which is amazing. Everything runs smoothly, and it’s everything you could ask for in an app. They also give you some quick instructions in the beginning on how to play

There are free starter packs, free weekly puzzles, and you can purchase more packs too. Lots of variety. I’m absolutely hooked on this game
-- cnloco, 2023-12-24

### ***** "Best version of a great puzzle game"
First, Kakuro is a great puzzle game in its own right, much more fun than Sudoku in my opinion. I like it because it is a number and logic puzzle, whereas Sudoku is strictly a logic puzzle. Second, Conceptis has combined quality puzzles that are accurately graded for difficulty with a flawless user interface and a never ending supply of new puzzles to produce the best Kakuro app available. Conceptis began publishing great Kakuro books in 2006 and with this app has continued with the same quality and grading system digitally. Beware, once you develop some skill, Kakuro is very entertaining and you can easily get hooked and waste an incredible amount of time. Highly recommended. I did suggest a couple of improvements, one of which I have seen in another app. It would be helpful in solving if you could either enter color coded pencil marks, or if you had the option to place pencil marks in the order in which they are entered. So far, they don’t seem inclined to implement either of these suggestions.
-- hnkahl, 2023-11-06

### ***** "I love Kakuro"
I want right to the hard levels. I started Kakuro as soon as Dell came out with the written ones and have been addicted ever since! I wish there were more out there!
-- witches poo, 2023-11-04

### ***** "Great game"
Love playing this game. Makes use my mind.
-- ImShyShy, 2023-10-24

### ***** "Excellent brain gym!"
Logic and basic arithmetic combined, good interphase,
-- GusR63, 2023-10-17

### ***** "Review"
Game is challenging . I love it but wish it would give you statistics on how many solved without help
-- Eac7777, 2023-10-08

### ***** "Great"
Love it
-- BrendaVatt, 2023-10-05

### ***** "Easy to use but challenging"
Very easy to use!  It allows to to choose multiple numbers for an unknown box to revisit later. It also has a tab to show you all the number calculations available for that row. Just in case you are unsure, there is a tab to show you if you have any mistakes. It comes with a limited amount of free puzzles but they can be erased and revisited again. Purchasing puzzles is reasonable.
-- sqhdysgyehduhvef, 2023-09-12

### ***** "Excellent game"
Great version of an old game
-- Mad Mike 2010, 2023-09-09

### ***** "Great puzzle!"
I am addicted!
-- JanRG, 2023-08-30

### ***** "Always entertaining"
No complaints
-- kakuroCrazed, 2023-07-30

### ***** "Best Kakuro out there"
puzzles are properly rated and there are always new ones available. Best number puzzles out there!!!
-- CH** me, 2023-07-21

### ****- "Quality Game"
I’ve been very happy with this game. It helped save my sanity through some tough times, providing challenges to sharpen my concentration. Sometimes it claims that my entries are correct when they are not, which is the only drawback that I can see.
-- Sue in the Burgh, 2023-07-20

### ***** "Just what you want"
No frills game. Buy your puzzles and enjoy. I play every day. One of my faves.
-- BrianAlt, 2023-07-19

### ***** "Great game"
Love all the options. Could use a few more free ones 😉.
-- Spoonman27, 2023-07-17
