Questions

How hard is the Expert level?

Expert hides 30 words in a 20 × 20 grid, running in all eight directions including backwards, and the filler letters are borrowed from the word list, so there are plenty of false starts. Most people need 25–40 minutes.

Can I print these for a club, senior center or care home?

Yes. Puzzles are free for personal and non-commercial group use. Print as many copies as you need.

Is there a large print version?

Yes. Every theme has a large print edition with bigger letters and a roomier grid, made for easier reading.
