What is Killer Sudoku

Killer Sudoku is a true legend among number games and puzzles. In a nutshell, it’s a perfect blend of those fave brain-twisters Sudoku and Kakuro. Absolutely free!

This number puzzle goes by many names: Sumdoku, Addoku, Cross Sum, etc., but the rules are equally simple across the board. Your goal is to fill the grid with numbers like in classic Sudoku while making sure the sum of numbers in the cages (areas separated by dotted lines) is equal to the number in the upper left corner of that cage. Still sounds complicated? Let’s review the Killer Sudoku rules in detail.

How to play Killer Sudoku

✓ Fill all rows, columns, and 3x3 blocks with numbers 1-9 exactly like in classic Sudoku
✓ Pay attention to the cages – groups of cells indicated by dotted lines.
✓ Make sure the sum of numbers in each cage is equal to the number in the upper left corner of the cage.
✓ The basic rule of Killer Sudoku is that the sum of all numbers in each 3x3 block, row, or column always equals 45.
✓ Numbers cannot repeat within cages, a single row, column, or 3x3 region.

really good and challenging, but there needs to be an option to remove the clock and score to make it harder for players that want maximum difficulty. When you get the right answer the block shows points scored and there's also the score near the top. please give the option to remove these.

I really enjoy Killer Sudoku, but I wish I could see the score of the game as I finish. The screen with my score disappears in the blink of an eye and the current score does not show anywhere in the summaries. ☹️☹️. difficult to keep track of how my games are going when I can only see the very best score of the day, week, month and not the rest of my play

The game is generally good. But ONLY if you pay for the ad-free version. When I first started playing, the easier levels would have an advert before and after, and the Expert level would have one or two in the middle. Then it became one every three minutes but it's now one every 2+ minutes. 7 adverts for an 11 minute Expert game is beyond a joke.

Hi Graham! Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the game, but we understand your frustration with the frequency of ads. Ads support free apps, but we agree that too many can disrupt the experience. We appreciate your thoughts, and hopefully, we can improve the balance between ads and gameplay in the future.
