Unusual Themed Word Puzzles

DO NOT start with Clue #1, etc. That is the long, slow way to solve CrosScan.

Instead, begin working with the letter block to find all the words that you can. Then find a clue to match each word, and check off the words as you find them. Be sure to find the correct clue before circling the word, because there are words that do not match any clue.

It is recommended that you start looking for diagonal words first, as these will be more difficult to spot after you have begun to circle words.

When you have found enough words, the theme of the puzzle will begin to emerge. When you have figured out the theme, you might want to start working partially from the list of clues. These will steer you to additional words in the letter block.

Bear in mind that we love word play. Our clues will be trying to mis-direct you away from the theme. For instance, if  the theme is “Furniture,” you may find clues such as "lead a meeting" (chair) or "garden plot" (bed).

May you have many hours of puzzling fun!
