Come and rescue me now 'cause I'm falling apart

· By acommonrose · Published 2022-05-18T01:43:28.825Z

To the Crossweird crew, here is my (not so) mini puzzle made for being the runner up in this week's Tuesday Cluesday contest. To everyone else, please enjoy a Crosshare exclusive puzzle where I lean into my instinct and just title the whole thing after an ABBA lyric. It was made in an hour and not test solved, but I think it still should be pretty fun.

              Really nice puzzle. The cross of 3D (a fantastic word!) and 12A is very pleasing, for some reason.
