For Cryptic Crossword lovers, our help in making a crossword puzzle online is an unexpected pleasure. Not only are the clues cryptic, but they are also personalized and entertaining.

As a personal gift, for educational training, or for delivering important information and key business messages in a fun way, our custom cryptic crosswords will be popular.

Compared to a newspaper crossword, another important difference is the Cryptic Crossword Layout or Pattern.

Since you are choosing the answers first, and we are creating the crossword layout afterwards, the finished crossword will have good to excellent interweaving of the answers, but there will be more black space than appears in a typical newspaper cryptic crossword.

Creating a Custon Cryptic Crossword is a three-step process:

1) Using our Solution Template Methodology, you will select 30 answers for your Custom Cryptic Crossword,

2) Based on this completed answer list, we will prepare a recommended Crossword Answer Layout , including at least 25 of your answers, and 3 sample cryptic clues,

3) Once the Crossword Layout is finalized, we will create the rest of the cryptic clues and send you the final Custom Cryptic Crossword.

A Custom Cryptic Crossword is Different!

How long does it take to get Custom Crossword Puzzles?

Custom Cryptic Crosswords are quite different from other crosswords:

1) Each cryptic clue is not just a synonym, but an interesting puzzle such as an anagram, a riddle, hidden words, or a double meaning,

2) A Custom Cryptic is unusual and more fun since both the clue and the answer are personalized to the individual, the learning experience, or the business event.

Remember that it takes time to learn how to do a Cryptic Crossword. If your intended recipients are not already cryptic crossword fans, our help in making a crossword puzzle online will not be successful unless you are prepared to take the time to teach them how to solve cryptic clues.

Once you have created the Cryptic Crossword answers, we will deliver the final Custom Cryptic Crossword to you as quickly as possible.

Since Custom Cryptic Crosswords are tailor made for each customer, there are no economies of scale in production. It could take up to 3 weeks to deliver a finished Custom Cryptic Crossword.
