Tips for Puzzle Page Crossword Challenger

  1. 1

    Do a first pass and only write in what you are certain of — guessing early is costlier here because corrections cascade.

  2. 2

    Challenger leans on general knowledge: place names, historical figures and older vocabulary appear more often.

  3. 3

    When a clue reads oddly, suspect wordplay rather than a definition.

  4. 4

    Leave long entries until their crossings are in. The extra grid size means more crossings to exploit.

  5. 5

    Challenger grids run larger with fewer black squares, so a wrong answer propagates further. Confirm a long entry on two crossings before committing it.

  6. 6

    Scan for entries with a strong pattern — a Q, an X, or a double letter — and anchor the grid on those before filling the open middle.
