How to play Garden Kakuro online

  1. Read a column sum above the grid or a row sum to its left.
  2. Fill a blank square using a digit that can satisfy both its row and column. Starter digits stay fixed.
  3. Complete every sum without repeating a digit in a run to unlock the next challenge.

Controls

Select a square with a mouse or touch, then choose a digit. Previous and Next move between editable squares. Pencil records candidate digits, Erase clears a square, and Undo restores the last entry. Check highlights filled digits that disagree with the unique solution.

A tip before you start

Subtract the fixed digits from a run’s total before choosing the remaining digits. A run with just one empty square gives a direct answer; compare that answer with the crossing run before entering it.

A compact kakuro puzzle online

These learning boards use complete crossing rows and columns with several fixed starter digits. They begin with a three-by-three white grid and grow to six-by-six. Each level adds one more empty square, from four to twenty-three, while the hint allowance decreases.

One answer, room to work it out

Every board has been checked for exactly one solution. Use pencil marks to keep several possibilities visible, then erase candidates as the crossing sums narrow them down. There is no timer or lives counter.
