New Game - Crossword Cove

Tweet

The name says it all. If you like crosswords, then this is the one for you! Crossword Cove looks like it's set up like Trivial Pursuit and Word Search Daily. There's a daily puzzle and an option to pull up the calendar to work on another. You can also choose your difficulty level, as well as if you'd like a timer or not. Not sure how the timer works because I choose to start without it, which could be a good thing since I'm not doing so well! LOL It's pretty easy to navigate. Just click on a box and the clues will be highlighted to the left of the puzzle. To switch from across to up and down, just click twice on the box and it should change. If you need help, there is a hint button. A little starfish (at least, I think that's what it is!) to the left will jumble up the letters of the answer. Then it's up to you to figure it out. Of course, in doing this, you will only earn half the points for the correct answer. And if you still can't figure it out, the hint button will say solve instead. When you click on that, it will automatically fill in the answer and you will not get any points for it. If the word is right, you'll see a checkmark and the word will turn to gold. There are also Star Powerups. There are several stars spread out on the puzzle. If you correctly answer the clue with a star, you earn a powerup. To activate it, all you have to do is click on it. When you do that, it will reveal the most common letters used in the puzzle. When you're done or you'd like to give up, just hit All Done. Then you can click on Submit to have the puzzle scored or Check Answers to see what mistakes you have made. I think that's pretty much it. I'm still working on the first puzzle. Hopefully I'll get it quick because I still have to finish up my personal badge before tomorrow!
