                Sorry, but I didn't understand most of this puzzle. YIKES I feel really dumb!!!
                • Hoyt Arcane constructor · 2022-02-15T01:43:18.762Z
                  Some of the squares require HEART going down and then ARROW going across. Thus, an ARROW going through the HEART. Hope that helped!

                  Fantastic theme! It took me right up until almost the very end to realize it was a bi-directional rebus. I get your note about solving on paper; it would've been fun to just draw a little heart with an arrow through it in each box!
                  • Aaron 🤓4:01 · 2022-02-19T01:00:55.150Z
                    Excellent puzzle! I love it when a rebus means something different in the across and down directions.
                    • Hoyt Arcane constructor · 2022-02-19T01:12:19.872Z
                      Glad you enjoyed!
                    • Matt Forest 19:43 · 2022-02-21T04:03:48.020Z
                      How should I have entered the rebus to avoid using "reveal"? I knew it was arrow/heart... I guess that's what counts.
                      • Hoyt Arcane constructor · 2022-02-21T17:37:45.559Z
                        It is! But to answer your question: I should have it set to where you can put either HEART or ARROW into each of the rebus squares.
                      • Luc 7:52 · 2022-02-22T16:51:59.442Z
                        Too clever for me this morning, ha! What a fun use of rebuses!
                        • Hoyt Arcane constructor · 2022-02-25T20:39:36.765Z
                          Glad you liked it!

                          I'm going down the list for voting and this is probably the strongest use of theme so far. Good job!
