    Very cool! You might want to check out this puzzle too - kind of similar idea.

      Thanks, Mike. And thanks for all your work on Crosshare! The software makes crossword puzzle creation effortless, but the community you’re building is the real gem. It’s so nice to finally have a place to share puzzles for other constructors to solve and provide feedback!

        Thanks Grant! Building a community for feedback is definitely the main goal so I'm glad it's working 😊. Get in touch if you have any suggestions for improvement!

      Nice! After figuring it out I spent a while trying to get "Tony STARk" in LOKI's spot 😂

          Cool concept! I enjoyed it except for XCM, because I've never seen x̄ as a Roman numeral and if that first X was 10 it didn't make sense.
          • Grant Law constructor · 2021-10-19T02:17:32.149Z
            Thanks for solving my puzzle, Julia! Yes, I struggled with whether or not to use XCM. I tried a BUNCH of other letters in there without luck, and finally just accepted it as a way to teach solvers a new Roman numeral. :/
