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!

Chris +1. Fill in 7 and can't get any further even with possibilities filled in. Gonna have to start calling BS on some of these claims unless 'enlightenment' is provided.

Just kidding. although I would like to know how to finish this without doing chains or orphans.

fairly easy.I am pretty certain that trying it without writing down any possibilities involves trial and error in other words guessing.I usually do the easy and the medium that way without guessing but as for the hard one I leave it to others.

How to fill in with no possibilities

Simple and obvious to start with: O = 6, J = 5, R = 1, S = 2, V = 6, B = 7
Now consider 27D. Four rows have a maximum of 4 so I and Q = 8 and 9. This forces P = 7
H = 5 or 6. If H = 5 then following the 8’s and 9’s round A = 2. Also H = 5 forces More...
