Diagramless puzzles are just like regular crossword puzzles, but with one major difference - the crossword grid is completely blank. Not only do you have to determine the answers to the clues, you also have to figure out where the black squares go. This book includes 60 diagramless crossword puzzles of varying degrees of difficulty. The grid size of the puzzles also varies, ranging from 13x13 squares all the way to 23x23 squares. We supply you with the crossword grids and solutions as most crossword puzzle books do. However, we also give you a section on tips and tricks for solving diagramless puzzles. And if you need some help getting started, we give you the starting square for the first answer in the back of the book. And if you still need more help, we also give you the first word.
