The Book of Kakuro contains rules, strategies, and 200 mind-boggling puzzles! Sudoku became a popular sensation overnight, and Kakuro is poised to do the same. The Book of Kakuro includes 200 puzzles ranging in difficulty from the gentle through the tough to the diabolical, tips to solving Kakuro puzzles, worksheets, and the solutions.
