Crazy Eights #1

Have a new puzzle type debuting on my blog this week. This format, like many, was originally conceived by Patrick Berry. Fill each blank spot in the grids so that 8 letter English words read both across and down.

A Minipuzzle Where Every Answer is Clued as a Metapuzzle

Not in an opportune situation at the moment, but I'm still trying my best to get something out every week. If you're unfamiliar with metapuzzles, the gist is that each clue will have multiple words or phrases divided by commas, and you'll need to use them to derive the answer using various forms of wordplay or puzzle solving mechanics. An example would be [ACE DARLING, JACK FROST, KING LEONIDAS, QUEEN OF HEARTS]. In this case, if you order the answers by the starting playing card rank, the rest of the answers start with the letters FOLD.

Puzzleland (A Mini-Puzzle Hunt)

  Sorry to all who were concerned about the wait. It was both a drought of puzzle ideas, and a lack of responses to my previous trivia tourney, which reminds me... Don't forget to respond to the form in my last post!   Anyhoo, to make up for the lack of new puzzles, I have put together a mini puzzle hunt! Each of the 5 main puzzles will somehow resolve to a 1-2 word answer phrase. The meta will then combine these answers into one final answer. Feel free to reach out to me for answer confirmation for any of the puzzles or meta at troydear@gmail.com. With that, click here to enter Puzzleland!
