Features:

• Kakuro Nichiyou features 234 hand-picked/created Puzzles from Puzzlemakers all over the world. Permission granted by Otto Janko, a great Puzzle collector, visit his website: www.janko.at
• Play Kakuros by setting numbers in the free fields, you can even make “notes” in each field (small numbers from 1..9)
• In Kakuro Nichiyou you can save your current progress to one of 20 different save slots.
• Kakuro Nichiyou features a solver which is work in progress. In the current state it is able to solve 203 out of the 234 Puzzles completely. It cannot find a solution for the other puzzles but gives you the found notes of the remaining fields (or maybe just a good laugh).

You’ve probably witnessed people playing this everywhere - on the subway, the street, coffee shops, etc… It’s the world’s latest mind-exercising craze - the Sudoku puzzle. And now, thanks to HPNuts, it’s available on the PSP! PSPSudoku is written in the LUA scripting language; however, HPNuts has taken the liberty to provide standalone EBOOT’s so the LUA player is not required.

Sudoku is conceptually easy but will certainly get your mind in motion. The object: fill each box and horizontal/vertical line with the numbers 1-9. These numbers can not appear twice in the same box or line. You’ll see what I mean…

Great work HPNuts, I’m an addict!
