"Mostly Easy."

Purchased on Mighty Ape

This is on the back of the book: 100 fun and easy KenKen puzzles that use addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Puzzles range from 4×4 to 6×6 grids. My review: There are 64 easy 4×4, 16 easy 6×6 and 20 Moderate 6×6, so if you are looking for “Easy to Hard”, this book is not for you. Poor quality paper, too.

Description

Many solvers love KenKen not just for the intellectual challenge or the sheer fun of solving, but because these puzzles help them attain an almost Zen-like state of mental relaxation. KenKen reminds solvers that every number has it's place and every problem has an answer. This latest collection contains 100 KenKen puzzles. The puzzles range in size from 3×3 grids to 6×6 grids and include “How to Solve” instructions and an introduction by puzzlemaster Will Shortz.

  • 100 fun and easy puzzles
