About Kakuros

A mathematical crosswords

For every horizontal and vertical block (group of cells), a sum is given (in a black cell). One has to fill the grid (white cells) with numbers between 1 and 9 such that all the sums are satisfied and the values of the cells of each block are different.

How to play

The main methods consist in using, for each sum, the possible decompositions into numbers between 1 and 9. Of course, you may have to invent more complex methods to solve the most difficult Kakuros.

The following matrix gives the decompositions for a sum (horizontally) in a given number of cells (vertically). A single decomposition is displayed in a yellow cell, while a multiple decomposition is displayed in a red cell. In both cases, clicking on the link of the number of decompositions will display them under the matrix.
