1 out of 5 stars The Kakuro breaks all the rules   July 8, 2008
I purchased this game for the Kakuro part, since there are several other available Sudoku games. The puzzles don't follow the rules of Kakuro, so it's virtually unplayable. There should never be a point where you can only get the answer by sheer guessing; you should always be able to work out the number given all of the other clues. You might have to temporarily guess but by following that path you should be able to verify or disprove your guess.

The interface is, um, unique, but it is useable. I wouldn't have given it one star for that. It lets you operate with the buttons rather than the stylus and it takes a bit of getting used to.



1 out of 5 stars do not waste your money on this game   January 11, 2008
it is the most boring, non-user friendly game i have ever played! Don't waste your money


1 out of 5 stars Disappointing   January 9, 2008
As other reviewers have noted, this is a very disappointing version of Sudoku. In addition to their complaints, I would state that I get the same board offered multiple times (both Sudoku and Kakuro). I don't know if this is because I haven't met some minimum time? Speed is inhibited by the navigation of the game (at least it does let you wrap around from the top of the screen to the bottom, etc.).
One thing I do like about the game is that, being new to Kakuro and not very quick with math, the game tells you when your math does not add up. When I get more proficient with Kakuro, this may become a "leave me alone, darnit" feature, as it is currently on the Sudoku side of the game.
Brain Age's version is soooo much better - can't those folks just put out an independent Sudoku?



2 out of 5 stars Very disappointed!!   July 5, 2007
 6 out of 7 found this review helpful

I don't want to repeat what the other reviewers said, but they are absolutely right. I was really disappointed in this game and, like the others, wish that I had waited for the reviews.

Why any of these developers can't come up with a Sudoko and/or a Kakuro game with a similar interface to Brain Age is beyond me.

The worst part is that the game board is on the non-touch screen and moving around is extremely cumbersome. Whoops!! I'm repeating what the other reviews said -- sorry!!



2 out of 5 stars Could have been better   June 17, 2007
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

This could have been a great game for Kakuro alone. Unfortunately the interface isn't very good. It doesn't allow you to place potential answers in the blocks and that is essential for any Kakuro puzzle to solve. Try Brain Buster Puzzle Pak for the DS or import a Kakuro game [..] for a better game experience.
