- If correct, the word will be highlighted in the grid
The Spangram
Every puzzle contains one special word called the spangram. This word:
- Describes the puzzle's theme
- Spans from one edge of the grid to the opposite edge
- Is highlighted in gold when found
Theme Words
In addition to the spangram, there are several theme words that relate to the puzzle's theme. These are highlighted in blue when found.
