[. . . ] However, the word list in Crosswords was created for use as a game aid. We do not recommend its use as a general purpose spell-checking device. Crossword puzzles don't count blanks or punctuation when fitting a word into the spaces provided, so the version of Matchmaker included in Crosswords is specially tuned to account for this. [. . . ] If you still don't see a word which will solve the puzzle, and you suspect that two letters in your original word may be wrong, press SECOND-GUESS again. Press the key again for three substitutions and so on. Phrases The phrase key is great if you know a portion of an answer, but can't remember the rest of the phrase. For example, here's the clue: "Hersey's Big Ben Blockbuster. " You know the clue refers to a novel title with "bell" in it, but you just can't recall the rest of the title. To see more "bell" phrases, press . Jumble The "JUMBLE" key is a boon to Jumble players, riddle solvers, or players of Scrabble. Let's say that you have the first turn and your letter tray contains the letters "n, x, y, r, s, o" and a blank piece. into Crosswords (the "?" is for the blank tile, which counts as a single-letter wildcard) and press JUMBLE . However, if you only type in 5 letters, the longest minimum word size allowable will be 5. Scroll to the number 4, then press 5 ENTER . Soon you'll see a list of words which may be used on the Scrabble board: "onyx", for example. Crosswords is also great if that triple-word-score is sitting within striking distance and you're not sure if you can take advantage of it. Just type in the letters which appear on your letter tray and add the letter(s) from the board. For example, suppose that the triple-word-score space is five squares away from the letter "n. " The letters on your letter tray are "x, e, o, l, i, t, h. " Type all eight letters into Crosswords. As scroll through the list, you note that "neolith" will get you to the tripleword-score square. The Jumble key is also great for solving riddles, such as the following: "Speeches made out of oats and iron. " Type in oatsiron (no space between the words). Set the minimum word size to 8 (the number of letters you typed-in) and press ENTER . NOTE: Since Crosswords is also for crossword puzzles, many of the words you see will not be valid Scrabble words.
