Download or read book Crosscan Puzzles written by Bill Cobb and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-12-19 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CrosScan Puzzles Book 3 - The Latest Word In Word Search What happens when word search meets crossword? Add a fun dose of punning and pop culture, and you get a unique type of word puzzle called CrosScan. CrosScan is word search with a twist - you are given a word-search grid with crossword-style clues instead of a word list. Also, the theme is hidden; it will emerge as you solve the puzzle. Clues often contain puns and double meanings, but they all make sense once you figure out the theme. Each finely-crafted puzzle has about 40 words and enough leftover letters to form a quotation related to the theme. It's a mind-stretching challenge -- not overwhelmingly difficult, but definitely not a piece of cake. Here is a sample of comments from those who have tried the first two CrosScan books: "What a fun game!" "I really appreciate finding this gem." "I was getting bored with the traditional word-search puzzles, and when I was presented with CrosScan it was a welcome challenge." "These puzzles are great for crossword puzzle lovers and for those of us who may not have enjoyed crossword puzzles in the past. You can't go wrong." The 84 puzzles in this book will give you many hours of solving pleasure. For samples of CrosScan Puzzles, please visit our website at crosscanpuzzles.com.
