To solve an Addoku, use only the numbers from 1 to 9. The numbers in squares linked by a coloured line must add up to the total given in the top left-hand corner of the set of linked squares. No individual number is repeated in any of these sets of linked squares.
Similar to Sudoku, the numbers 1 to 9 must also appear in:
- Each of the nine vertical columns
- Each of the nine horizontal row
- Each of the nine 3 x 3 boxes
Use the mouse to click up (or down) through the numbers 1 to 9 in each square. The small black arrows on each side of the square tell you whether you are counting from 1 up to 9 (right arrow) or from 9 down to 1 (left arrow).
Using your keyboard, you can type in up to eight practice numbers below the line at the top of each box.
When you have correctly completed a linked set of cells, that area fills with colour and any practice numbers will disappear.
