Crossword Challenge Puzzle 360 Clues and Answers
Stuck somewhere in Crossword Challenge Puzzle 360? All 30 clues on this 8×10 grid are solved below, one card per clue.
Short answers dominate here: 9 of 30 fit in one or two squares. 6 clues are pictures, and 2 of those ask you to fill the gaps in a word printed on the image; 1 clue wants only the initials of the clue words; 4 want just the first letter of a single word; 1 clue is a fill-in, and 1 of it needs only the missing letters. The longest answer runs 9 letters and belongs to the picture clue in the top row.
The edges of this grid check each other. The top-row answers begin with the letters of the answer to “Assisting”, read left to right, and the left-column answers begin with the letters of the answer to the picture clue in the top row, read top to bottom.
