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!

I did it withour guesses, but it took me a while - my brain isn't capable of completing all the logic required in 3 minutes. For me - it was a slow process of eliminating possibilites until it was nearly half done - then it fell in place.

Only had 2 possibilities to eliminate when using orphans:
1. Identify 21D cells that must be 456, which solves 3 in 21D.
2. Identify possibilities for 24A & 38A (especially w/ down constraints)
3. If upper 12D=57, OSX contains 789 and RTU contains 456 (but can't solve 35A)
4. Used More...
