    Very interesting puzzle. I often like Kakuro variants better than vanilla Kakuro, and I also always appreciate the Kakuro designs that only give you as many sums as you actually need rather than just defaulting to all of them. Also nice use of the logic on the 22’s.

    Great puzzle, I thought the break-in using the variant rule was very fun.
