gamer.tv Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I’ve been picking up the paper the last few days (I know…) and have enjoyed, along with some news and sport, the puzzles. I’ve smashed through a few Sukdoku, World wheels, word searches and crosswords, then the other day, there was a cryptic crossword. My dad used to finish The Times cryptic crossword when he was waiting for me to finish rugby training and I have no fucking idea how. I’ve read a few articles and there barely seems to be a rule set. Sometimes it might be an anagram, sometimes one word is a clue, the rest being clues but not clues, sometimes it’s working out parts of each word definition to make a new word…madness. But I want to actually have a crack at one and apparently the best way to learn is from other people, sooo… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I have been enjoying the mini crossword on the NYT website. My mother has religiously done the full NYT crossword for decades. I think the mini because you can finish it in a few minutes even as a novice crossworder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamer.tv Posted June 15, 2022 Author Share Posted June 15, 2022 I love a quick crossword, there’s something really satisfying about that feeling of recall - even when it doesn’t matter in the slightest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
