Constant Solver:
Guess who's back. Back again. Guess who's back. Tell a friend.
Hallowe'en's coming up, so I made a Hallowe''en-themed logic problem. Should be fairly easy. At least my Math Ph.D. friend thought it was.
This week's crossword variant goes by several names. PennyPress calls it Double Trouble, Dell calls it Triplex, and Kappa calls it One, Two, Three. You know the one I'm talking about. I'm going to call it a crushword, since that seems to be the title that the New York Times goes with (although in their version, the boxes can have more than three letters).
I've made crushwords for the Freebie before, but this week's is one that I truly enjoyed constructing. In fact, it's half the reason I decided to pick the Freebie back up. In most of my older crushwords, some of the entries felt a bit forced. In this one, everything flowed very smoothly. Next week I may go into detail about the construction process -- what I did differently for this grid compared to the others.
But anyway, onto the puzzles. NOTE: The cover puzzle involves a color motif, but can be solved in black and white.

See you next week. --H.A.
