Challenge yourself at home with word and number puzzles 200 brand
new compelling and addictive word and number puzzles from The
Times. Appearing daily in the newspaper, Codeword is the cracking
alternative to Su Doku and Crosswords. The concept is simple: each
number represents a letter, so, starting with the solved letters,
use your logic and vocabulary to reveal more letters, form words,
and then crack the code! The most difficult puzzles for top solvers
contain no solved letters so you need to employ all your logical
strategies to crack those. The Codeword series is so popular
because you don't need any prior knowledge, unlike a crossword. You
can just pick up a pen and get puzzling. It steadily increases your
vocabulary, as the difficulty slowly grows as you progress through
the book, and even though you'll be working your brain, it's the
perfect way to unwind.
