About this game

Play a crossover variation of Sudoku and Kakuro! SumSudoku, also known as Killer Sudoku, are addictive logic puzzles best described as a cross between Sudoku and Kakuro. 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.

Each puzzle consists of a 9x9 Sudoku grid containing areas surrounded by dark borders. The object is to fill all empty squares so that the numbers 1 to 9 appear exactly once in each row, column and 3x3 box, and the sum of the numbers in each area is equal to the clue in the area's top-left corner. In addition, no number may be used in the same area more than once.

The game includes helpful features such as showing possible sum number combinations in an area and 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.

For more fun, SumSudoku contains no ads and includes a Weekly Bonus section providing an extra free puzzle each week.

This is very fun and challenging, but it has one major issue. When I choose a number for a square, I don't want the game to automatically remove the smaller numbers in its row or collumn that I placed for notes. That throws me off so much. Please add an option in settings to remove that feature.

I really enjoy the game, but the price for more puzzles is extremely high. If you were to purchase every volume, the total comes out to more than $500. Would love to see a much cheaper option. I could see spending between $10 and $15 for all puzzles, but I don't think it's worth it to buy anything with the current pricing system.

Thank you for your feedback. Our policy is to provide high quality puzzles in a relaxed atmosphere without the interruption of ads. To enable us support this app and provide more puzzles we need to charge for each puzzle pack what we hope is fair compared to what we put in. We hope you understand our situation and continue to play these puzzles.

My favorite killer sudoku app! I love how it shows you the possible umber combinations for each section, and allowing me to cross out combos that I know won't work. Only thing I wish was that it would have daily puzzles with a streak tracker, and something to show how I compare to other players on each puzzle. Adding events would also make sure I log in daily! Oh, and please allow us to customize our colors 😭 yellow on beige is sooo hard to see
