Greetings from Kolkata. A straightforward and gentle puzzle from Dada this Sunday that I enjoyed solving and thereafter writing a full review of his puzzle for your kind perusal and valuable feedback. Continue reading “ST 3357 (Full Review)”
A very good Sunday morning from Winnipeg where we had a reminder that Winter is still with us with snow falling from late on Tuesday until mid-Friday morning fortunately nothing like the pre-Christmas blizzard.
For me, and I stress for me,© Dada on double duty with the Prize Toughie but I’m not. A little too much 1d chez moi to make a reasonable judgement on the puzzle as it was one of those Saturday evenings where the Puzzle was not immediately available on the web site but it was on my ‘on its last legs’ tablet so that’s where I started the solve, go figure. Anyway, six anagrams (four partials), two lurkers, and no homophones in a symmetric 32 clues; with 16 hints ‘sprinkled’ throughout the grid you should/might be able to get some of the checkers to enable the solving of the unhinted clues. I hope you have your Crimson Tomes at hand!
