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!

CharlesH- Usiing orphans (X+C=13) gives X,C leadign to A,B as well. I don't have a name for the principal, but logic syas if a number must go in each of two rows and 2 columns that intersect, it can't go anwhere else in those rows and columns.

Thanks, Steve.
I've encountered that principle before and am glad you brought it up. It goes way beyond the 4s in this puzzle tho! Now the question is: are orphans necessary to work this puzzle in a reasonable amount of time?
