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!

+o-p (I only solved 1 cell w/o orphans)

start with +o then it is a -p
ought to be solvable +p somehow, but not by me

-o in hindsight, good puzzle!

-o hint: each 21D value only appears once in that column (that's obvious of course, but extremely helpful in this puzzle)

Easy with possibilities and orphans.

w/o orphans, HL is not 45 pair (can't have both I=6 and M=6). A short chain on 33A caused a similar problem, then could solve from there.

I gave up too soon and went with +o+p

Easy with orphans. Pressed for time today to linger with nada.

+p+o Tried hard for -o but could not do it.

Someone please correct my -o approach if it doesn't account for all:
1. D=1
2. HL is not 45 pair (can't have both I=6 and M=6).
3. If X=3: RU is 45 pair, S=6 (but any 45 pair causes a 2nd 21D cell=6)
4. IM is 23 pair and 11D is either 65 or 74, so CHLN contains 6789 and WR/WX More...

Paul +1, easy with orphans

1:38 +o -p (except that I'm suspicious that nobody else found it this easy, so wonder if I overlooked something....)
