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!

Ur - I'll take a shot, but I don't know the accepted conventions. Going by columns (I'll denote by position going down), I quickly had 29: x 5 x x; 23: 4 9 x x; 39: 5 7 x 4 9 x, and 8: 7 1. At this point, I saw that the third number in the 29 column (I'll call it 29(3) was an 8 or 9, but if it More...

Correction - I looked over my solution and realized I overlooked a possibility. I should have had 19(2) = 5 or 7, then 29(3) = 5,8,9 - 29(3) = 9 has the same problem, and 29(3) = 5 --> 33(6) = 9 which requires the 9's in rows 30, 31 to be in the 29 column. Now you get 29(3) = 8 (and thus 29(2) = 5), so now my solution works.
