Tired of looking at screens? Enjoy word challenges? Like problem-solving? If your answers are yes, yes and yes, then codewords are for you!
Codewords give stimulating challenges. They are absorbing, fascinating, satisfying and fun.
They are also frustrating and amusing - for example, when the word "_ _ YM _", which you were convinced should be "RHYME", turns out later to be "THYME" and you have been hoodwinked!
Within these 150 puzzles you will find lots of words you had forgotten you knew.
Try them - you don't need to be Alan Turing to succeed!
