Crossword Challenge Puzzle 1794 Clues and Answers
This page covers all 30 clues of Crossword Challenge Puzzle 1794, an 8×10 grid that mixes picture clues with short word clues.
Short answers dominate here: 9 of 30 fit in one or two squares. 3 clues are pictures, and 2 of those ask you to fill the gaps in a word printed on the image; 2 clues want only the initials of the clue words; 3 want just the first letter of a single word; 2 clues are fill-ins, and 2 of them need only the missing letters. The longest answer runs 9 letters and belongs to “Earth's life zone”.
The edges of this grid check each other. The top-row answers begin with the letters of the answer to “Bunch of flowers”, read left to right, and the left-column answers begin with the letters of the answer to “Earth's life zone”, read top to bottom.
