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!
possible with orphans but needs some thought

It's amazing how unfulfilling it is to solve the puzzle without a picture at the end.

Easy with orphans

Difficult for me. I must be missing something-- can't see how knowing the orphan sum helps at all.

Same comment as OZ.after finding B=1 C=3 E=2 G=2
J=7 Q=2 V=1 Maybe Cambs can tell us what was the next move and most important why?
The last time I asked someone who had said that it was easy,he came with explanation that made no sense.

8:38, tried only 1 chain - without a 6 in F

or, alternatively, putting a 6 in F leads to 2 5's in the middle columns - will not work

without orphans but with a lot of work. There are only a few possibilities for the bottom row, and the 6 crosses then lead the way.
