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

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: no chains required
-o: would have to try again

I would advise trying -o first, +o-p is easier than I originally thought

nada, but based on a guess. It seemed likely that 27D would end in 1234 and that 13A would be 7321. Making those assumptions, everything falls into place.

+p+o+c. Tough puzzle. Don't like trial and error but couldn't eliminate it.

First try I needed a chain to eliminate a possibility for V, but proceeding, I realized that some eliminations did not depend on the V elimination, so I redid it with no chain required (+OPM M = Mulligan)

Even with orphans, too much for me, 2021.
