A few weeks ago, we brought back one of our trickiest recurring features: the View a Clue game!
If you recall, I selected ten fictional characters that commonly show up in crossword grids — some have become crosswordese at this point — to see if the PuzzleNation audience could identify them from pictures.
Without further ado, let’s give it a shot!
