Easy themed crosswords where every word you solve plays the next bars of a song.
How to play
- There are ten warm-up puzzles, plus a new daily puzzle every day; the last week’s daily puzzles stay open to catch up on.
- Tap a square or a clue, then type the answer. Tap the same square again, or the clue above the board, to switch between Across and Down.
- A word is checked as soon as its last square is filled: right, it turns green and stays; wrong, the letters that don’t fit turn red for you to fix.
- Stuck? Hint fills in one letter of the word you are on. Each puzzle gives you three; start the puzzle over and they come back.
- Every word you solve plays the tune from where the band has got to, and the last word of a puzzle plays the whole song.
- On a computer, the arrow keys move, Tab jumps to the next clue and the space bar switches direction.
What it trains
- Word recall: finding the word on the tip of your tongue
- Vocabulary and spelling, one clue at a time
- A calm pace, with music that answers every word you solve
