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.

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!

Needed the quad orphans, which only have 1 solution.

How do you determine quad orphans? If I try the same way as 2 orphans, I never get it right.

Quad orphans only. Chris: the columns total 90, and the rows total 100; so, the rows are greater and the difference = 10. So the formula is:
B+Y = E+V+10. You can tell that B is 9/8 and Y is 1/2/3, so the possible totals are 9, 10, 11 & 12. E is 1/2 and Y is 1/2/3, so the totals (including More...

Jane - We number the squares A, B, C, etc. through Z starting in the upper left corner and ending in the lower right corner. The first orphan (second square on top row) is B, etc.
