Kakuro (2019)

False name, this looks like Kakuro but it is just a poor imitation. Kakuro is a puzzle using logic and maths that looks like a crossword. Through a process of elimination you can deduce which number combinations are use and how to get the single solution. This "thing" only involves throwing combinations of number in the grid until eventually one of the multiple solutions pops up.

If you love Kakuros, DON'T buy this game. The puzzles suffer from multiple solutions, which defeats the purpose of a proper Kakuro. There's no pencil mode, making it frustrating to keep track of possible numbers, and the initial clues seem random rather than strategically placed. A well-designed Kakuro (or Sudoku) should guide the player toward a single valid solution through logic, not guesswork. Unfortunately, this game fails in that regard.

Seems poorly made, and on occasion broken. Several of the levels have multiple endings. On the 4X4 I found at least three identical levels. I have done a lot of Kakuro in puzzle books and magazines, and these are really slapdash. Cannot recommend.

If you love Kakuros, DON'T buy this game. These puzzles have multiple solutions, no pencil mode, initial numbers seem random. A real Kakuro (or Sudoku for that matter) should not be a guessing game, but should lead the player towards the one and only valid solution by carefully laying out the prefilled numbers at the start.

I'm enjoying the challenge. It's challenging even with the hints.

Not a true Kakuro game. Waste of time and money.
