Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The verdict on these word games will be unanimous: they're the best, most enjoyably challenging ever! Here's just a bit of what awaits you inside:

* Split Decisions, popular in The New York Times, give you a few letters that repeat in two words and you fill in the blanks.

* The Ultimate Crossword features numbers in each box that stand for letters: figure out the connections and you're on your way to completing the puzzle.

* Go Two by Two: Only two different letters are needed to complete these miniature crisscross puzzles. All the vowels have been placed for you. Pick two consonants and repeat them as often as necessary to finish each grid.

* Words are playing hide-and-seek in Big Words A-Hiding: The grid conceals five words that have ten letters or more. Start anywhere and search left, right, up, or down--but not diagonally.
