Crossword Challenge Puzzle 2519 Clues and Answers
This page covers all 29 clues of Crossword Challenge Puzzle 2519, an 8×10 grid that mixes picture clues with short word clues.
Expect plenty of tiny answers, 9 of them only one or two letters. 4 clues are pictures, and 1 of those asks you to fill the gaps in a word printed on the image; 4 clues want only the initials of the clue words; 7 clues are fill-ins, and 5 of them need only the missing letters. The longest answer runs 9 letters and belongs to “Progeny”.
Here is the shortcut for Puzzle 2519: read the first letters of the top-row answers and you get the answer to “Across the ocean”. Read the first letters down the left edge and you get the answer to “Progeny”. One of those two words unlocks the first letter of 15 others.
