A crossword is a word puzzle that normally takes the form of a square or a rectangular grid of white and black shaded squares. The goal is to fill the white squares with letters, forming words or phrases, by solving clues that lead to the answers. In languages that are written left-to-right, the answer words and phrases are placed in the grid from left to right and from top to bottom. The shaded squares are used to separate the words or phrases.

How to Finish a Crossword Puzzles

#1. Start with the fill-in-the-blank clues because these sentences are often easier to solve than others.

Then you'll have a network of answers to work with. Solve as many of the squares from the network as you can, then begin at the #1 box and work your way down. If the word fits in both directions, fill in the blanks. Then repeat with the next box until you've filled in all of the words you're certain of. 

#2. Go over the clues from beginning to end.

Based on a few prewritten characters, you may be able to guess a few more correct answers. Ensure that the letters fit into the other numbered boxes as well. It is not a correct word, remember, unless it fits perfectly with every box number it touches.

#3. Repeat the above steps until all puzzles are solved or can't be solved anymore.

Now, your job is to find the letters for the remaining words.

#4. Spending time concentrating on clues and topics

This is the key to solving puzzles, so we must focus on it. If there are any clues or topics that you don't know much about, look them up on Wikipedia.

#5. Study the missing letters.

There are only so many syllables in the English language and only a few letters will work with both of the words that cross. Take guesses and see if they fit.

#6. Examine the puzzle and any clues you missed or derived without any prior knowledge of the topic.

Maybe it will help you remember something.
