Killer Sudoku (also known as Samunamupure) is based on normal 9 X 9 Sudokus with the usual rules. However, there is one additional rule - there are dotted regions (sometimes called "cages") superimposed on the Sudoku grid, and the numbers in each region must add up to the total to the smaller number marked in the top left of the region.

For example - if there is a dotted region that is two cells across and one down and marked with a 6, you can deduce the cells must either contain a 5 and 1 (or vice-versa), or a 4 and 2 (or vice-versa) - they cells can not contain a 3 and 3 because of the Sudoku rule that you can't have the same number twice in the same row.

Killer Sudokus can be very tough to solve - and are an excellent new challenge if you're board with solving classic Sudoku.

Just when you thought it was safe to pick up a pencil

Killer Su Doku is based on the original Su Doku grid, with the same rules and numbers—1 to 9—but with an added deadly twist. This time there is an element of arithmetic involved and there are few, if any, clues. The aim is to not only complete every row, column, and cube so that it contains the digits 1 to 9, but to also fill in the outlined cubes so they add up to the same number.

Hints to solve the puzzle are hidden in the joined squares where only one combination of numbers applies. In the case of joined squares, if the printed number is 3, it should be 1 and 2 that go into the squares. Likewise, in the case of three joined squares, if the printed number is 6, the only combination possible is 1, 2, and 3.

To add one final fiendish level, each puzzle also has a time worked out by its Japanese creators so you can try to beat the clock.

Product Description:
Introduced by The Times, the British publisher who pioneered the sudoku craze, the “killer sudoku” poses a double challenge: the basic rules of sudoku still apply, but puzzles initially have no numbers showing. All that is known is the sum of the numbers inside irregular boxes, called cages, in which the classic 9 x 9 sudoku grid is subdivided. Killer Sudoku contains 101 of these brain-busters grouped into six levels of difficulty. The introduction explains the basic techniques needed to solve these new versions of the world's most popular number puzzle.

Product Description:
Sudoku fans will welcome this bright new twist to the popular puzzles! Every one of these ingenious creations—from “Bold X” to “Rainbow Up”—makes colors and patterns part of the solving fun. And although each puzzle maintains the normal 9x9 grid and follows the basic rules of the game, every style adds an additional restriction to intensify the challenge. In “Worms,” for example, swirly, squirmy shapes fill the grids; the numbers increase as you work your way from head to tail. “Even/Odd” features squares in two colors, depending on whether the number to fill it is even or odd. And in “Positional Board,” no two of the red squares can be the same number. They’re all lots of fun!
