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!

orphans or chains

Orphans, Short chain to determine M, and the rest falls out. Lucky pick to start there.

I solved RUVLM before orphans or chains. Will add +o-p and -o+c spoilers later (unless someone finds nada)

Possibilities, orphans and chains. Not easy.

starts out like a nada, but need orphans to finish. I also used possibilities

+p+o didn't need chains. Lots of elimination work. Good puzzle.

+o-p
1. 1st 5 pre-orphan: Solve 6D and U. FJS can't contain 123 (solve LM)
2. post-orphan: D>=5 to solve its row (solves 8A and rest of puzzle)

-o+c
1. 1st 5: No 1 in 24D, so S<=3 and IJK contain 345. Solve 6D, 12 in right 31D and 15A.
2. if 31D contains 47: no More...
