Already huge in Japan and taking England by storm, kakuro is the latest game craze to reach America, and Simple Kakuro is designed specifically for these new players.

The book's 214 beginner puzzles are perfect for learning the game, honing one's skills, or just enjoying a few minutes of stimulating play any time, any place. The puzzles vary in size and difficulty, starting with super-easy puzzles and progressing to more challenging puzzles as the player's skill level increases.

There are two hard front covers on mine and there are a lot of misprints. the puzzle itself will be wrong. You have to look at the answers to figure it all out. And that just ruins it.
