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!

I never got a good feeling of this one. After a couple of extended logic chains I finally got it, but maybe I missed something.

If J were 8, you couldn't form 27 vertical.

Same thing turns out to be true of K; it can't be 8 either.

Then 17 vertical has only two choices, one of which is impossible.

Spent a long time on this one.

About 11:00 (after going back to check alternative assumption led to contrdiction.)

Nice random number from Graham. Bet we don't see an explanation as to how he solved it so quickly.

Slarti - key is solving the 27 and 17 down - otherwise keep your views to yourself as I don't query you when you are quicker than me - many, many times!
