Kakuro combinations chart

This chart lists all 502 Kakuro combinations. Each one is a set of 2 to 9 different digits from 1 to 9. Find the clue and the number of cells, and the row shows the digits that can fill the run.

The same chart works for Killer Sudoku cages, because a cage also uses different digits. New to the puzzle? Read how to play Kakuro first.

Sums with only one combination

These 34 sums have exactly one set of digits. When you see one of them, you know the digits at once. Only the order is left to find. The solving guide shows how to use them.

All 502 combinations

The rows go by the number of cells, then by the sum. A shaded row marked "Only one" is the single combination for that sum and cell count.

How to use the chart

  1. Count the white cells in the run, and read its clue.
  2. Find the rows for that sum and cell count. Only these digits can go in the run.
  3. Do the same for the crossing run. A cell can hold only a digit that is in both lists.
  4. Remove the digits that the run already uses. Each digit goes in a run only once.

Example: an across clue of 3 in 2 cells can only be 1 and 2. A down clue of 4 in 2 cells can only be 1 and 3. The cell where the two runs meet must hold 1, the only digit in both lists.
