Dodeku

Sums run along the edges of the board, and a set of number tiles waits beside it. Drop the tiles in so every row and every column hits its total.

A simple order to solve in

Work where the numbers squeeze you. A row that needs a very small total can only take small tiles, and a column with a big total needs the big ones. Place those first, then check each crossing square against both of its lines. Fewer moves gives a better result, so think before you drag.

Before you start Dodeku
