Sum Skyscraper 6&#215;6 puzzle
Sum Skyscraper 5&#215;5 puzzle
Sum Skyscraper puzzles are very similar to Skyscraper puzzles, so no number can repeat in any row or column and external &#8217;skyscraper&#8217; clues reveal information about the numbers in the main grid.

<p style="line-height: 19px;"><span style="width: 150px; float: right; padding: 10px; border: solid 1px red; text-align: center; background-color: #ffffa0; margin: 5px"><a style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold" href="http://www.garethmoore.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Sum-Skyscraper-6x6-puzzle.pdf"><img border=0 src="http://www.garethmoore.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Sum-Skyscraper-6x6-puzzle.jpg"><br>Sum Skyscraper 6&#215;6 puzzle</a></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 19px;"><span style="width: 150px; float: right; padding: 10px; border: solid 1px red; text-align: center; background-color: #ffffa0; margin: 5px"><a style="text-decoration: none; font-weight: bold" href="http://www.garethmoore.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Sum-Skyscraper-5x5-puzzle.pdf"><img border=0 src="http://www.garethmoore.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Sum-Skyscraper-5x5-puzzle.jpg"><br>Sum Skyscraper 5&#215;5 puzzle</a></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 19px;">Sum Skyscraper puzzles are very similar to Skyscraper puzzles, so no number can repeat in any row or column and external &#8217;skyscraper&#8217; clues reveal information about the numbers in the main grid. In 5&#215;5 puzzles place 1-5, and in 6&#215;6 puzzles place 1-6.</p>
<p style="line-height: 19px;">Each number in the completed grid represents a building of that many storeys, and place the buildings in such a way that each given number outside the grid represents the <em>sum of the number of buildings</em> that can be seen from that point, looking only at that number’s row or column. A building with a higher value always obscures a building with a lower value, while a building with a lower value never obscures a building with a higher value. So the clue &#8216;6&#8242; in a 5&#215;5 puzzle would indicate that the buildings &#8216;1&#8242; and &#8216;5&#8242; can be seen (&#8217;5&#8242; is always visible in 5&#215;5 puzzles), so the solution to a row might be 15234.</p>
