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.

The game is great. I have loved playing it for a long time. However, the ads have really started in. It used to be before and after a game...maybe one in the middle. Now an ad pops up every few squares. I just had about 20 ads during one game. I have found it faster to simply shut down the game and restart than to wait for the ad to stop.

Hi Martin! Thank you for your feedback and for being a long-time player. We apologize for the increased ads during gameplay. We understand how frustrating this can be and are working on optimizing the ad experience. If you'd prefer an ad-free experience, you can remove all ads with a small one-time payment in Settings.

In the last few weeks the number of ads has increased so frequently I can't play it any more. It used to only show short ads after getting all 9 of a number like two of 3 times a game. Other than that it would show a longer ad if you go for a second try and a short ad when you start and finish a game. Now it shows lots of ads interrupting the game often. What happened?

Hello Douglas, thank you for your feedback! We apologize for any inconvenience the additional ads may have caused. The recent increase is due to the rapid development of our free apps, which require more resources. We value your input and will consider reverting to the previous ad frequency when feasible. Your understanding is much appreciated!

I've played this game for a long time but the ads recently have increased a lot. also are there no longer unlimited undos? when you play on expert mode sometimes you need to go 50 moves deep to figure out it you are going the right direction. really disappointed that I can't use the undo button like I used to. it would be different it there was a counter to show how many you have left but there's not...

Hello, thank you for your feedback. To enhance the app's performance, we've set the undo limit to 25 moves per game. The recent increase is due to the rapid development of our free apps, which require more resources. We value your input and will consider reverting to the previous ad frequency when feasible.
