Anyone for Kakuro?
 
Kakuro is much like a crossword but you use numbers 1 thru 9 instead of letters. Therefore, the numbers must add up across and down. It is a step up from Sudoko and is very challenging. I am unable to purchase puzzle books locally and order online from Amazon, although I picked up my first book at a bookstore while at the beach. Let me hear from you.

I do Sudoku, I get books at the Dollar Tree. I also have http://www.dailysudoku.com/sudoku/archive/index.html bookmarked to print out Squiggly ones if I can't find any books at $ Tree.

I also found a "Daily Kakuro" at https://puzzlemadness.co.uk/kakuro/ They also have an Archive.

I have tried the Kakuro but found it to be more challenging that I wanted my puzzles to be. I am happy with the Sudoku and when I want challenging, I go to the evil or extreme puzzles. Or the ones that have irregular squares. I really respect those that have the patience to work the Kakuro ones. But not me...maybe once in a while, but not on a daily basis.

I hate to post this, in fear that someone else will become as addicted as I am. Great Kakuro puzzles here - http://www.atksolutions.com/games/kakuro.html. You have a choice of easy, medium, or hard. I do the hard ones, and they take a while. You can print the puzzle if you like, but I work them online.
