Kakuro HARD

Outside Non-Consecutive Sudoku
I announced this one when I posted my first Outside Sudoku puzzle: it’s a non consecutive Outside Sudoku. Even though it looks like a regular Sudoku puzzle, you must follow one extra rule: two touching numbers must not be consecutive.…
OddEven Jigsaw Samurai Sudoku
It’s been a while since I last posted a Samurai Sudoku variant puzzle. Here is a new one. As far as I remember, I never posted such puzzle before. Remember: shaded cells MUST contain only ODD numbers! OddEven Jigsaw Samurai…
Outside Jigsaw Sudoku
Another novelty in 2010 – Outside Jigsaw Sudoku. Read the rules of Outside Sudoku first. And then, twist it a little – it’s a Jigsaw (Irregular) Sudoku puzzle! UPDATE: One clarification about the rules of Outside Jigsaw Sudokus: The clues…

Hitori
UPDATE: After some debate with udosuk (see comments), I’ve decided to adopt the rule that every cell must be either black or white, it can’t be left “undecided”. I’ve changed the original puzzle accordingly so you can download it now.…
Sudoku Straights
It’s only Wednesday, but I decided to present you with another Sudoku Straights puzzle. Remember that they are shown every Friday on the Daily Sudoku variants page. The rules: 1. Use numbers 1-9. Numbers cannot be repeated in rows/columns. 2.…
