Crossword Challenge Puzzle 1326 Clues and Answers
Puzzle 1326 of Crossword Challenge gives you 33 clues on a 8×10 board. Each one is listed below with a hint first and the answer second.
Short answers dominate here: 14 of 33 fit in one or two squares. 3 clues are pictures, and 1 of those asks you to fill the gaps in a word printed on the image; 8 clues want only the initials of the clue words; 2 want just the first letter of a single word; 4 clues are fill-ins, and 3 of them need only the missing letters. The longest answer runs 9 letters and belongs to “Im-portance”.
The edges of this grid check each other. The top-row answers begin with the letters of the answer to “Building top”, read left to right, and the left-column answers begin with the letters of the answer to “Im-portance”, read top to bottom.
