How Puzzle Page Kakuro Works
Kakuro is a crossword built from sums: each across and down run has a target total, filled with non-repeating digits.
Tips for Puzzle Page Kakuro
- 1
Memorise the unique combinations — 3 in two cells, 4 in two cells, 16 and 17 in two cells each have only one option.
- 2
Work the shortest runs first, then use their digits to constrain the long ones.
- 3
A cell shared by two runs is where most progress happens; test candidates against both totals.
- 4
If a run allows several combinations, look at what its crossings already rule out.
- 5
Memorise the unique runs: 3 in two cells is 1+2, 16 in two cells is 7+9, 6 in three cells is 1+2+3, and 24 in three cells is 7+8+9. They pin down whole intersections.
- 6
Mark impossible digits rather than possible ones. Eliminating is faster than enumerating when a run has several valid combinations.

3 Tips for Puzzle Page
The board is the whole puzzle
Every answer is built from what the level actually shows you and nothing else. Counting that first rules out most of what comes to mind, which is quicker than trying words and being rejected.
Place the longest answer first
Long answers use up the awkward letters and leave a set that spells the short ones out for you. Starting long is consistently faster than sweeping for three-letter words.
Neighbouring levels are the best hint
Difficulty climbs gradually rather than in jumps, so the levels either side of a hard one reuse its patterns. They are more useful than any hint the game sells you.
How to Solve a Puzzle Page Level
The order that clears a board fastest.
Read what you are given
Letters, tiles or clues — count them before you start. That constraint is the strongest filter you have.
Anchor with the answers you are sure of
Each confirmed answer narrows the ones it touches, so the easy entries are worth the first minute.
Work outwards
Follow the chain from what you have placed rather than jumping around the board.
Verified Answers, Not Guesses
How we verify these answers
Every answer on this page is read from the game's own puzzle data rather than retyped from another site, and is checked against what the board actually provides — so nothing listed can use a letter the level does not give you. The counts shown are computed from the stored data, not typed in by hand.
