Have you ever wondered how to combine a puzzle you love, like sudoku, with something you've always feared, like gym class? Maybe not gym class, but how about math class? Conceptis Puzzles' CalcuDoku Light is the latest edition in their Conceptis Light series, and this puzzle pack features plenty of mathematical mayhem to keep you occupied.
Created by Japanese math teacher Tetsuya Miyamoto in 2004, Kashikoku naru Puzzle translates literally as "A Puzzle That Makes You Smart". Hitting that exact right combination of mathematical calculation and logical reasoning, it soon became an international sensation under the name KenKen. As the story goes, "Ken" translates as Cleverness, so KenKen (or, I guess Ken^2) is Cleverness-Squared. That's an apt description for this arithmetic grid-based brainteaser. At JayIsGames, we're always on the lookout for good online versions of pen-and-paper games, and Nextoy has provided with 6 daily, devious, and easily-printable KenKen. Why? Because they Ken Ken Ken!
