Puzzlewright Press – serie

Challenge your brain—not your eyes with large-print crosswords for adults! Large word type, generously sized grids, easy-to-see numbers in the boxes, and 125 crosswords in every book. No wonder the volumes in this Large Print Crosswords series from beloved puzzle book imprint Puzzlewright Press have the seal of approval from the NAVH (National Association of Visually Handicapped). The crosswords in Large Print Crosswords #4 are challenging for the brain, but not hard on the eyes, so everyone can enjoy some puzzle fun. Crosswords can keep the mind sharp, but if your sight has weakened through the years, of if you're vision-impaired, you might have to strain to read both the words of the clues and the numbers in the boxes. That can be frustrating and cause even the most determined puzzlers to put down the crossword. Not anymore, because every one of these large-print puzzles, 125 crosswords in each collection, takes two pages, so they're easy to see and to fill out. And these cunning puzzles will really please, covering a variety of subjects and offering a real test of your word smarts. As a bonus feature, the spiral binding in the Large Print Crosswords series allows the books to lie flat, making them easier to solve. Look for other books in the series!

Sum-thing big is on the horizon Kakuro puzzles (also known as cross sums) are like a combination of crosswords and sudoku: each clue in the grid tells you the sum of the digits in its answer, and just like sudoku, digits are never repeated within an answer. From this simple premise, extremely challenging puzzles can be constructed, and that’s just what Conceptis Puzzles has done for these collections, which each contain 72 supersized kakuro, offering massive solving pleasure for the brave souls who love tackling such challenges.

Each chapter presents new styles of puzzles and new challenges, leading to a dramatic conclusion tracking down the criminal mastermind behind it all.

Ada Nicolle created a crossword blog several years ago called Luckystreak Xwords, as well as a Patreon, both of which feature themeless puzzles focusing primarily on modern trends and Gen Z culture. She writes, “I like to represent people that don’t often get the spotlight in mainstream crossword puzzles, and I figure crosswords are more fun when they feel like they were written by a person living in the present moment.” This collection will consist of 72 crosswords imbued with Ada’s singular personality and humor, compiled from the best of her blog, plus 30 brand-new puzzles written especially for this book.

Is this a book of logic puzzles or a coloring book? Why not both? The intricate, visually appealing puzzles in this book are based on slitherlink: a sudoku-like puzzle that involves drawing lines on a grid of dots to form one big loop. Standard slitherlink puzzles are solved on a square grid, with each clue indicating how many sides of the surrounding square have lines drawn on them. This book, however, features elaborate tiled grids with triangles, hexagons, octagons, and more, allowing for endless variations from page to page. The gorgeous kaleidoscopic designs can be colored before, after, or even during solving. Mind-bending as the puzzles may seem, a warm-up section of standard slitherlink followed by easy kaleidoscope puzzles (plus help from a detailed tutorial) will offer a welcoming experience for all levels of solver.
