Ken Ken can be described as Sudoku with basic math operations—addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Ken Ken has the choice of grids, from the easiest 3 x 3, up to the hardest 9 x 9. Users fill in squares with numbers to reach a target number based on the math operation provided. As with Sudoku, numbers may not be repeated in a column or row. By using different combinations of the math operations, five different difficulty levels can be chosen.
