A Quintessential meta

· Published 2 months ago

This concept came to me when I was half asleep. It took a while to figure out a meta-mechanism that would work with the concept but I finally came up with one. I hope you find this a unique and original metanism. It's weird but it will tie…
No. I don't really consider this a meta--- Just a themed puzzle. But hopefully a fun one. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

Works for me

This is probably really easy to guess but very difficult to solve. However I dropped several meta-META hints so even if you guess try to back-solve the meta-nism. And, yes, you'll probably want to google.

Edit: I guess it's time for me to make this public. This one is very cute and easy (well, you may need to google but it will be fun googling!)
This was meant to clean up and tighten one of my very early puzzles, Take the Dogs for a Walk (https…

Two years ago or so I dug myself into a Rabbit Hole when I thought a meta used this mechanism. It didn't. But this one does.
Here are a few guidelines for this 1: This is a concept driven puzzle more so than a language driven puzzle; don't look…
This is the exact same puzzle as https://crosshare.org/crosswords/iDLefWgNZalQNhE129IW/rise-above-it-all but this one has some themer pointers (both the easy and the hard themer pointers)
