Kakuro Nichiyou (MK2K)
Kakuro Nichiyo is a freeware implementation of the kakuro numbers puzzle. Similar to crossword puzzles, you are given clues about the sum of the numbers that are found in any given row and column, and from this you must deduce what number appears in each entry on the grid.
This game also features a fairly robust solver and a puzzle creation utility.
Versions for Linux and Mac can be found on the game's download page.

Browsing the internet, I've found that this game is very popoular in Japan and in the USA, but I didn't know about it! It's a challenging kind of puzzle, that can keep you busy for hours ^__^ By the way, the instructions miss an important point: each sum must be made of different digits. Keep it in mind while playing ^__^

Well the instructions say "a) Any free cell in a group has a unique number.", that's exactly what you said. Maybe I'll have to rephrase that -.-

Actually I didn't get the meaning of that phrase, but maybe my poor english is to blame ;_;
