Have to add numbers to get totals in columns and rows (like a crossword grid), but can only use numbers once in an addition row or column.
eg 3 spaces to total 24 = 7+8+9
2 spaces to toal 10 = 1+9, 2+8, 3+7, 4+6 (5+5 not allowed) and so on. try hitting 7 or more digits totalling 50 and higher. it'll get your mind working. or blow it maybe. :duh:
I'l have to try kakuro :mmm:
