FAQ

Common questions

Is this puzzle a good way to pass the time before midnight?

That is exactly its sweet spot. The grid gives partygoers something to do during the slow stretch leading up to the countdown.

What is the longest word in this New Year's grid?

RESOLUTION runs ten letters, the longest entry, so it is often the quickest to find once you scan for long sequences.

Can I use this in class after winter break?

Yes. It makes an easy first-week warm-up in January while students ease back into the routine.
