Crossword Challenge Puzzle 2063 Clues and Answers
Stuck somewhere in Crossword Challenge Puzzle 2063? All 32 clues on this 8×10 grid are solved below, one card per clue.
Short answers dominate here: 10 of 32 fit in one or two squares. 4 clues are pictures, and 4 of those ask you to fill the gaps in a word printed on the image; 5 clues want only the initials of the clue words; 1 wants just the first letter of a single word; 4 clues are fill-ins, and 4 of them need only the missing letters. The longest answer runs 9 letters and belongs to “Liquid stickiness”.
Start at the edges. The first letters of the 7 answers hanging from the top row spell the answer to “Deer meat”, and the first letters of the 9 answers along the left edge spell the answer to “Liquid stickiness”. Solve one of those two and every edge clue starts with a known letter.
