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!

Tried using 1 and 9 in 10 down.did not work then tried 2 and 8 and went quite far.stayed with that chain and tried another where I was left with 4 and 6 in 2 places in 34 across.I took a chance and went all the way.
This one without any orphans is all luck.

'All logic'-solution found, no chains, no guessing... Fantastic puzzle!!!

Yes. Fun puzzle; all logic. Start off by looking for places where '1's can be eliminated because of row/column constraints. [Sorry. Can't think of right terminology for this.]

2212 - great puzzle. The key is the 4/5 in the top after you eliminate everything else.

Karl, this is what I always refer to as the standard Sudoku rule. Don't leave home without it!
