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!

Orphans and a chain (urgh).

didn't try very hard, but this looks not solvable by logic, even with orphans

ah! wherever the 5 is in 21D eliminated two of the 6s in 38D.
A=8 in all variations of 32A
and the 3 is located in 21D and easy ....

Orphans and a chain
free kakuro puzzles | online kakuro puzzles
Orphans but no chain. All logic, and a very neat solution. First key was that 14A has only one solution. Then you can determine that, since F or R must be 5, I or U must be 2, so M is not 2, which means that R or W is 9. Then it solves easily.

Very easy, no orphans, although I had to fill in possibilities.

Mike F or R or H is 5 so I or U does not necessarily have to be 2. Orphans and Chain used
