Cross Sums Puzzles are similar to crossword puzzles. Instead of entering letters, you enter digits (1 to 9, no zeros). Each "word" is a multi-digit number. The clues, rather than being off to the side as in a crossword puzzle, are simply embedded into the black squares either directly above a down number or directly to the left of an across number; They are the sums of the digits in the numbers. No digit is used more than once in a number. There is exactly one solution to each puzzle. The logic involved the the More-or-Less Weekly Cross Sums Puzzles is challenging! If it's too much for you 8-), there are smaller and some easier puzzles in the free viewer. Download the viewer from: http://people.ne.mediaone.net/twestbom/Puzzle.html The full version can generate more puzzles of the same quality as the puzzles in the demo than you could use in a lifetime - unless, of course, you let the computer solve them!!! 8x10 and up. 3 difficulty levels.
