It's clear that the V and the R are interchangeable so solutions are in pairs.
Here's a solution:
9376+1086 = 10462 or 9386+1076 = 10462
Here's another:
9476+1086 = 10562 or 9486+1076 = 10562
I believe these are the only solutions:
1. M is clearly 1.
2. O is therefore 0. It can't be 1 because it would then be a repeat and it can't be more than 1 because you can't get to 12 when you're adding M=1 to G.
3. G is therefore 8 or 9 with 1 or 0 carried.
4. I + 0 = N, so there must be a 1 carried in the I,O column and N=I+1. Which means we'll be looking for a solution that leaves two adjacent numbers unaccounted for.
5. Because of the carry, the V,R column must be bigger than 10. So the V,R column must come to 12,13,14,15,16,17.
We can then deal with these cases:
12: E=2 (so no carry). VR=(3,9),(4,8),(5,7)
We can eliminate (4,8) because Y will be 4. (3,9) and (5,7) don't work because G would have to be 8 in the former and you won't get the carry and you won't get two adjacent numbers with the latter.
Similar arguments eliminate other options until only:
16: E=6, VR=(7,8). There are then 3,4,5 as the only adjacent numbers left over leading to the two pairs of solutions shown.

It's clear that the V and the R are interchangeable so solutions are in pairs.
Here's a solution:
9376+1086 = 10462 or 9386+1076 = 10462
Here's another:
9476+1086 = 10562 or 9486+1076 = 10562
I believe these are the only solutions:
1. M is clearly 1.
2. O is therefore 0. It can't be 1 because it would then be a repeat and it can't be more than 1 because you can't get to 12 when you're adding M=1 to G.
3. G is therefore 8 or 9 with 1 or 0 carried.
4. I + 0 = N, so there must be a 1 carried in the I,O column and N=I+1. Which means we'll be looking for a solution that leaves two adjacent numbers unaccounted for.
5. Because of the carry, the V,R column must be bigger than 10. So the V,R column must come to 12,13,14,15,16,17.
We can then deal with these cases:
12: E=2 (so no carry). VR=(3,9),(4,8),(5,7)
We can eliminate (4,8) because Y will be 4. (3,9) and (5,7) don't work because G would have to be 8 in the former and you won't get the carry and you won't get two adjacent numbers with the latter.
Similar arguments eliminate other options until only:
16: E=6, VR=(7,8). There are then 3,4,5 as the only adjacent numbers left over leading to the two pairs of solutions shown.
