How to play KenKen
- Press New Game. The grid is split into outlined cages.
- Fill every row and column with 1 to N once each.
- Each cage must reach its target number using the shown operation (+, −, × or ÷).
- A single-cell cage is simply that number. Tap a cell, then a number, to fill it.

Tips & strategy
- Solve the single-cell cages first — they're free givens.
- For a two-cell − or ÷ cage, list the pairs that work, then use the row and column to choose.
- A cage's total limits its digits: a large + target needs the bigger numbers.
- Treat it like Sudoku too — a digit used in a row or column is out elsewhere there.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference from Sudoku?
KenKen keeps the Latin-square rule but replaces the boxes with cages, each constrained by an arithmetic target instead of being a fixed region.
Do cages allow repeated digits?
A digit can repeat within a cage as long as it doesn't break the row or column rule.
