if sudoku is number puzzle then what is ADDOKU and KAKURO?

Answer 1

Addoku is a combination of Sudoku and Kakuro that’s twice the fun. Use arithmetic skills and your Sudoku logic to find the solution.

In the Addoku, as for Sudoku, every row, column and 3x3 block must contain the numerals 1-9. The difference is that you’re not given numbers to start you off. The numbers that occur in the squares linked by a shaded line add up to the total given in the top left-hand corner of each set. No number is repeated in any of these sets. Use these totals to find the right numbers to solve the puzzle.

Click up from 1 to 9 or back from 9 to 1 and note possible numbers at the bottom of each square. When you complete each set it’s shaded in so you know you’re right!

Addoku puzzles are also called Sumdoku, Killer Sudoku or even Samunamupure puzzles. So play the best online version here!

Sometimes called "Cross-sums" or "Kakro", Kakuro is Sudoku's bigger (and harder) brother.

Kakuro puzzles resemble cross-words with numbers; you have 'across' and 'down' clues, but instead of filling in letters, you must use the numbers 1-9.

The aim of the game is to fill each blank square with a number from 1 to 9 to sum up to the clue associated with it. However, no number can be duplicated in an entry. For example a clue of 8 (over 2 squares) could be 1&7, 3&5, but not 4&4.

Answer 3

I think those are great ideas! But, not all of us, are good at crossword puzzles and I can't for the life of me figure out Sudoku. I think that reading and learning new things is good for the brain. I read somewhere, that learning a new language is great exercise for the brain. Right now, my biggest challenge has been learning the computer and getting out on the Internet. I have learned a lot. And Yahoo Answers has helped me through this Giant Task.
