Summary

This crossword variant will simply blow you away—and add to the solving fun! While there's still a grid and clues, the boxes in the grid now have irregular shapes and the clues aren't numbered. So you have to solve them, count the number of letters in the answer, and then figure out where they might go. Start with the 5x5 puzzles and work your way up to 10x10!
