Prize puzzle of the week
Each week we'll bring you one or more exclusive puzzles that you won't find anywhere else; the solutions will be in next week's newsletter.
PlusWord
Solve the crossword, then use letters in the shaded squares to complete the additional PlusWord. A letter in a green square appears in the same column in the PlusWord as it does in the crossword; a letter in a yellow square appears in the PlusWord, but in a different column than it does in the crossword.
There is only one possible answer for the PlusWord; it may be that the PlusWord contains letters that aren't found in the crossword, but it can always be worked out logically and without guessing.
