There are 30 puzzle sets to choose from. Each set comprises 20 ‘clues’ the answers to which comprise two words contained in the ‘Answer Bank’ of 41 words at the foot of each puzzle set.

The puzzles are simple enough in concept but they demonstrate what fun can be had by using ordinary words and combining them with another. Some of the clues will be easy and you will spot quickly how to solve them. Others will test your ingenuity and ability to think laterally. Look for words inside others and also pay attention to how they sound as well as to how they are spelt. You will be amazed at how words change their meaning when combined with others. Some of the words may apply to more than one clue, so be careful. One word will be left when the puzzle set is complete. But will it be the right word?

Confused? Don’t worry, you will soon get the hang of it. Now, pick a puzzle and enjoy!
