Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You always said you were smart. Now here's a chance to prove it, with the most challenging crossword collection ever. There are very few black squares in these crosswords, which means that most of the answers are long. Some of the information required challenges every facet of your general knowledge.

And in the matter of tricky clues: what's the five-letter answer to 'nui loa' ('Fondest regards, ' in Maui)? Give up? Answers: ANTIDEPRESSANTS, BACARDI RUM, and ALOHA.

Download or read book Vowelless Crosswords written by Frank Longo and published by Sterling Publishing Company, Inc.. This book was released on 2009-06 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wht's bttr thn crsswrds? Tht's rght: crsswrds wth n vwls! At first, these challenging, but fiendishly fun, puzzles look like the usual crossword. But there's a devilish twist: you write only the consonants in the boxes, "not" the vowels. So when you look at the grid, there's no quick way to know exactly how many letters make up the right solution. Plus, because you don't need as many spaces for each word, the phrases can be longer than usual--and that makes the grids wide open and ratchets up the difficulty level. For those who need a little extra help, there's a hints section to tear out and refer to when needed, as well as grids with wordlists explaining (with vowels) what the answers are.

Download or read book Mensa Cryptic Crosswords 2 written by Emily Cox and published by Sterling Publishing Company. This book was released on 2007 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Mensa(R) comes a series of super-challenging puzzles that go way beyond the average crossword--and also offer an authentic treasure-trove of wordplay demanding some skilled solving. Here's how they go: each clue has two parts. One is the normal definition of an answer, while the other features a little linguistic playfulness--maybe an anagram, perhaps a pun, and sometimes even a word written backward. And the hitch is...there's usually no indication of which comes first, or punctuation to mark the division. You've got to see through the clue-maker's deceptions and tease out the correct answer by rethinking the clue's wording. Some of the irresistible language trickery includes double definitions, hidden answers, homophones, and containers.
