with the numbers 1 to 16 using each number only once. Each puzzle
has just one solution, and uses math you learned in grade school:
addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The games,
which all call for logic, imaginative thinking, intuitive
elimination, and sheer persistence, are grouped in three
categories, and range from relatively simple to super-challenging.

through the basics; clues for some puzzles provide what might be
necessary encouragement. With 14 bonus puzzles aimed at children

same 9x9 grid as a regular Su Doku, but have an extra mathematical
element that multiplies the challenge. The aim is not only to
complete every row, column and cube so that it contains the digits
1 to 9, but also to make sure that the outlined sections, called
cages, add up to the number given in each cage. Warning: Not
suitable for amateur puzzlers!
