About Acrostic Puzzles

Acrostic puzzles are unique word games where solving clues reveals a hidden quotation. The first letters of each answer spell out the author's name and the source of the quote, adding an extra layer of discovery to your solving experience.

How Acrostic Puzzles Work

Step 1: Solve Clues

Answer the lettered clues (A, B, C...). Each answer's letters are numbered and transfer to the quote grid.

Step 2: Reveal Quote

Letters fill into the numbered grid squares to gradually reveal the hidden quotation.

Step 3: Find Author

The first letters of all answers spell out the author's name and work title.

Solving Tip: Work both directions - solve clues to fill the quote, and use revealed quote letters to help solve remaining clues!
