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!

can't see any way at all without orphans

The only way I found to do it without orphans is to do mental chains to eliminate 5 from VX and Y, leaving Z=5. And then do a little more mental chain type stuff to finish.

Only easy with orphans when you calculate them correctly. Grrr. At 13 doesn't work.

got a logic solution at last: wherever the 9's go in 30A, for each possible conformation of the remaining 678 (in 30A), consider the interaction on 35A, and you can see that 16D is always either 58 or 67, which means the remainder of 16D is always 12.

Then the entire puzzle drops out easily.
