Great but not enough puzzles

This was my favorite Nakuru game but it has a limited number of puzzles. After you solve all the free and the paid puzzles your only option it to do the previously solved puzzles over again. They haven’t added any new puzzles.

Give us more

I have really enjoyed this game. Each time I learn some “other”trick or nuance. I would love to see an app devoted to “dot” Kakuro, so there would be more to choose from. Good job.

Enjoyable, easy to use, a bit stingy

I'd say this game is pretty good. So far I've played Kukuro, and Dot Kukuro which I like because you get to use the type of logic required for Sudoku in a Kukuro puzzle. I didn't rate it higher because you only get 35 free puzzles. Then each set of 25 puzzles is 99 cents each. Seriously way too expensive. Other apps I've used are much more generous. On the other hand, out of the three I've tried, this one is the easiest to use, has the best design. This app is worth downloading to play 35 free puzzles. After that, I'd look elsewhere.
