Incredible! Easily my favourite Kea puzzle, and the best Listener so far this year. Just so rich in the theme and all the diverse gimmicks throughout. Thanks Kea!
A somewhat fiddly puzzle, involving altered clues, altered entries and a grid search, but it all works out unambiguously in the end. Many thanks, Ifor!
An excellent puzzle. I enjoyed the first stage of the problem as logic was required throughout rather than testing umpteen possibilities. The gridfill was quicker than anticipated and there is no...
I rarely post, and have never started a thread, but I wanted to congratulate and thank Cagey for an all-time classic Listener. Surely in the very top tier (top 5, at least) in my 20+ years of solving....
I thought the gridfill was OK. Many of the clues were pretty straightforward allowing a well-timed PDM to resolve the difficulties and confirm the theme. The two unclued entries were fine once the...
Well that was the toughest (and best) of the year so far by a country mile. I don't remember clues where the wordplay leads to anagrams of the answer before. It was quite tough in a few cases to...
I made greater headway with the downs than the acrosses so grid filling was slow. Having an idea of the inital letter of an answer literally gives me a head start in solving. A good mixture of clues,...
An early PDM gave us some impetus as did the large amount of thematic material.
A interesting piece of history in the final instruction.
Thanks, Artix....
Another cracker from the master of the genre.
So much to enjoy - obscure answers, quality clues, and a tough jigsaw (of sorts) to finish. Thanks, Sabre!...
Another enjoyable puzzle. Not difficult to guess what was required from the word go but the thematic clues were sometimes quite tough -- reverse engineering certainly helped with some of these towards...
Another enjoyable puzzle. It wasn't as daunting as the preamble initially suggested. There was a good mix of clue difficulty -- some very straightforward, others "Sabre-esque". I particularly liked...
A superb, challenging puzzle; one which was difficult to walk away from. Clues were generally excellent (I thought 22 was a tad weak), a nice PDM and a novel endgame. Many thanks, Rebel. Well done!...
