How to play Kakuro
Kakuro is similar to both sudoku and traditional crossword games.
Like a Crossword
Similar to crosswords, Kakuro has clues both across and down. When you put numbers in the vacant squares, the sum must equal the given clues. This is why the game is sometimes called 'cross sums'.
Like a Sudoku
Just like a sudoku, you cannot have the same number in a row or column. If a row is broken into 2 areas by a clue, then you can have the same number occuring once in each of the separate areas.
Other variations
Still looking for more puzzles? How about a variation on sudoku? Try Wordoku. Wordoku uses letters instead of numbers and has a hidden 9-letter word! For crossword puzzles, try Free Crossword PUzzles. 2 free crosswords (Easy, Hard) daily.

Choose a number, and place it in the grid above.

Talk about anything and everything, but nice to each other - you don't have to agree, but this is not the place for personal attacks. As Sir Paul McCartney said: 'I used to think anyone doing anything weird was weird. Now I know that it is the people that call others weird that are weird' (longer explanation). Enjoy!

John, any hints on your +p-o-chain approach?

Assuming first five cells (including orphans), I used only one short chain (If G=9: P=9, R=9, but can't solve 19A)

Possibilities, orphans and figure out what B can be.

+p, very chainy w/out orphans

relatively easy the second time with orphans, but probably just because I knew where to start the work

+o-p. Key for me was figuring out where the 4 or 5 was in 37D. Short mental chain from there. Interactions of 21A and 32A helped.
