PUZZLE   IBM-202

Kakuro - hard version

IBM Ponder This #202 · February 2015

In continuation of last month's challenge: Find a uniquely solvable Kakuro, where for every square X and every two definitions there is a different value for those two definitions that gives at least one solution that differs from the original solution, for at least the square X.

Please supply the answer in the same format as last month's challenge.

Note that a solution for January's challenge does not necessarily solve this month's puzzle.

For example:

3 A1 A2
4 B1 B2
3 A1 B1
4 A2 B2

is not a valid solution, because when we ignore the first and last definitions, we still have only one possible value for B1: 1.


Update (02/08): Bonus '*' for a non rectangular Kakuro.
