General Knowledge Crosswords for Adults

What separates an adult crossword from a children's one is not only the length of the words. Instead of "a pet that meows" you get a tricky definition, a hint at a historical fact or a quotation you have to recognize from two words. Crosswords for adults on our site are built on general knowledge: history, literature, geography, cinema, music of past decades and modern science are mixed, so you cannot guess the theme in advance. This format trains memory and the skill of holding several options in mind until the crossings point to the right one. Hard crosswords are handy for a work break, a commute or an evening instead of another episode. If a word will not come, there is a hint, and checking shows an error at once. Those who like solving with a pen can use the print version.
