Killer Sudoku
You might find killer sudoku puzzles easier or harder than regular sudokus. They certainly make a fun change. In addition to the regular sudoku rules, each of the outlined areas must add up to the total given for that area.
So in our example (a 6 by 6 grid), each of the rows and columns must contain one and only one of the digits from 1 through six. But the thing that makes it killer, are those little numbers in the left corners of each of the red outlined areas. The digits in a given outlined area must add up to the little number for that area.
This should get your mind thinking in some interesting new ways about numbers!
