Players can truly test their skills by seeing how their times rank them ? from beginner to master. The added time challenge in Beat the Clock Kakuro will help players improve their concentration and solving abilities as they push themselves to achieve lower and lower times on their way to becoming masters.

Good puzzles with time targets

Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2008

Good puzzles, a bit harder than usual. Some of them are really tough. There is an interesting gimmick: rather than grade the puzzles, there are expected times to complete for a beginner, intermediate, or advanced solver. The sums are tiny numbers printed white on gray and legibility suffers.

the puzzels were very well done maybe a little small but ok not quite as good as other books i have had

Puzzles are rated as to difficulty by assigning time frames from beginner to expert. A good mix of easy to challenging in a variety of sizes. I had fun with this one.

I love these puzzles. A few years ago I was able to find a book of them in the store. Lately I have been unable to find it again. I was very happy to find a copy on Amazon.com.

Thank you for making my vacation off-time more enjoyable and mind taxing.

I thought I was pretty good at Cross Sums until this book! Even the small puzzles in the front were hard.

Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2016

lots of fun

Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2009

The easier puzzles are just a matter of writing the numbers in without even thinking about it! Some of the harder puzzles take a little thought but take far less time than the suggested clock time. A disappointment for an advanced Kakuro puzzler!!

Warning: these are not simple puzzles!

Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2007

I have gone through a few other kakuro books before trying this one. The other books never even came close to the difficulty of these puzzles. It took me a while to get into the spirit, but now I'm totally in love with this book. These are puzzles you can really sink your teeth into.
