- Mike D 2:58 · over 3 years agoNice! I am not too familiar with the themers so this was tricky for me - had a good time trying, though
- Hraf constructor · over 3 years agoI think I may have overestimated the general familiarity with both the themers and a few of the regular fill clues (ERHU, ATTO, LAHTI, and SULA in particular may have been a bit more obscure than I'd intended), but I'm glad you enjoyed regardless!
- Ben Zoon 6:23 · over 3 years agoIf I laboriously worked through an entire book of these, my crossword vocabulary would improve markedly.
- Hraf constructor · over 3 years agoI hope that's a good thing! I know the NE corner of the grid is a bit of a doozey if you aren't familiar with XENIA, PHILIA, or ERHU, but I hope the rest of it wasn't too painful, even with the relative-obscurity of the theme!
- Idriss Z 🤓32:28 · over 3 years agoBrutal, but in a good way! The spike fiddle was an aptly named sticking (guessing) point.
- Aaron 10:57 · over 3 years agoThis one was brutal. I've gained a lot of Classical knowledge from Friday/Saturday NYT crosswords but this was way above and beyond what I can do. If anything this puzzle serves to remind me I have so much more to learn and that crosswords can be a great tool for that end.
- M Forest 8:15 · about 3 years agoThis theme was over my head, and the fill was too tough to help me figure it out w/o using reveal.
- Hraf constructor · about 3 years agoSorry it wasn't what you were looking for! It's definitely a tricky one in some places, but I hope it was interesting regardless! :)
