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!
possible without orphans, good puzzle

you guys are going to love the elegant logic solution to this one (I'm maybe falsely assuming there's only one way though)

Easy with orphans, but couldn't see it without. Any clues, Chris?

Angelo, fill out what you can first, solve at least the cells BCF. Put in the possibilities for 6A,3D,4D and 5D.

Now, 5D can be either 23's or 14's. If 14's, then that takes out every single 1 in 21D and 24D, except for the 6A row - which leaves not enough 1's. Hence 5D is 23's

Thanks for the clue, Chris...

As well as BCF, I also got ADE (note set of possibilities for 22A restrict AE and you therefore get D).

I had the other possibilities filled in, but missed the key with 5D. With just a little more thought I got the rest out relatively easily.
