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!

7:58 with a lot of fussing with the chain with 12 squares finalized.

Fine, Chris, but it seems like orphans are still needed (when I loaded the puzzle I had saved, I had already determined all of 39D. it seems only finishable from there with a guess or orphans.

I suppose I should use orphans whenever there doesn't seem to be a logical way to finish the puzzle

I went back and looked at the 2,3 pair in the 2nd and 5th row cells of 22D. Using the wrong value in the 2nd row resulted in a contradiction in the top, but the 5th row took me halfway thru the top (after doing the bottom) before I got a contradiction
