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 daily game is fine, but any time I play the challenges, there is a significant delay between pressing a number and it appearing on the board. I find myself having to wait all the time to make the next move and it's extremely frustrating. Like I feel like I could easily have the games be less than 3 minutes, but if I'm waiting 1 second before each move, that adds 81 seconds! If I try to play by not waiting, I sometimes confuse the game and get mistakes not my fault.

Hi Maria! Thanks for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the game does not work properly. You could try to clear the cache, restart the device, and ensure that enough memory is available. We hope one of these works for you. If not, please contact us via the "Help" section in the app.

An interesting twist on the Sudoku formula. The lower difficulties are a little too easy with the math and can easily done in ~5min. You can make a limited number of mistakes, but can watch ads for extra attempts. My only complaint is how frequently the ads show up. Extra life? Watch an ad. Win a game? Ad. Start a new game? Ad. Want another hint? Ad. They kill your momentum and with my ADD they kill my train of thought. TLDR: Cool Sudoku spin, but too many ads.

Hi! We are sorry for this, but we need revenue from ads to continue working on this free app. You can purchase an ad-free version if you don't want to see ads. You can also disable the mistakes limit: open the app, tap on Gear, select Settings, and turn off Mistakes Limit. 🤗

I like it completely! I just wish you'd change one thing: when I type a wrong number in (for example, 7) it is wrong, it still erases the "7" notes I had in other boxes of that row, column, etc. Then I think oh there's only one number there so I type it in and get two errors for the price of one! No biggie, but it would greatly help! Thanks!
