 do not waste your money on this game Jan 11, 2008
it is the most boring, non-user friendly game i have ever played! Don't waste your money
Disappointing Jan 09, 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?

 Very disappointed!! Jul 05, 2007
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!!

Could have been better Jun 17, 2007
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.

 What makes this one different from all the rest? Jun 10, 2007
So here we have another Sudoku game for the DS... so what makes this one different from the others? This one has the added bonus of having Kakuro included with it... it's Sudoku where you have to add up the numbers to make a certain sum, but only use them once in each row... not as simple as it sounds... but fun all the same... and you might need your calculator handy.
The Sudoku has a nice red Dragon background... but there aren't any changeable backgrounds or fonts like Sudoku Mania has, however, you can write the numbers with your stylus which Sudoku Mania or Sudoku Gridmaster doesn't offer. Sudoku Gridmaster doesn't offer different backgrounds or fonts either, nor does either one of the above games offer Kakuro.
So if you're a Sudoku fan, and want to try Kakuro, want functionality over variety of a few fonts and backgrounds, then this is a very good choice whether for first time beginners or hard core players since the game offers easy, medium and hard puzzles and keeps track of your best times.
