Crossword Challenge Puzzle 58 Clues and Answers
Puzzle 58 of Crossword Challenge gives you 30 clues on a 8×10 board. Each one is listed below with a hint first and the answer second.
Short answers dominate here: 9 of 30 fit in one or two squares. 5 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; 1 wants 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 “Unreal vision”.
Here is the shortcut for Puzzle 58: read the first letters of the top-row answers and you get the answer to “Provides coverage”. Read the first letters down the left edge and you get the answer to “Unreal vision”. One of those two words unlocks the first letter of 15 others.
