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!

Put in possibilities, did orphans, filled in 1 cell and realised it was not worth continuing.
Too many of these guesswork only ones lately.
Time to look for another site, I think.

well, actuallly, it seems quite a good puzzle. I haven't finished it yet but here are notes so far:

Chris always gives me hope. I'll try again.

However, there are quite a few that seem to require guessing, which we don't like. I'm wondering if we could start grading them so that if we browse back through the archive we could spot the good ones for an encore. Just a thought.

solution, short version.
S=5
E=2 (look at possible 30D combos)
the long 29D can't use the xx789 solution because of illegal triplets with the short 29D.
L!=123, R!=123 (look at possible combos of long 29D.
L=456, R=46, V=9, eliminate 46 pair from rest of 21A.
Y=8
short 29D=9587 More...
