United States
Wynne made the puzzle in the form of a diamond. He gave 35 clues and called it a wordcross. He was not certain how the puzzle would be received, but it proved to be an immediate success.
It can be said that the crossword puzzle, as it is called today, is the world's most popular form of recreation. Nearly 90% of the world's newspapers publish crossword puzzles. In the United States alone it is estimated that there are 30 million fans.
Most forms of recreation require a partner, but crossword puzzles do not. This is, perhaps, the reason why they are so popular. They can be done by one person in almost any place.
It is believed that most people do crossword puzzles just for fun. Most puzzle fans do not do them for their educational value, and most experts doubt that puzzles teach anything.
What is the challenge of crossword puzzles? Most dedicated fans explain that they want to test their mental ability. And others say that they want to test their speed and perseverance in solving the puzzle. Many hope that they will improve to meet the challenge of more difficult puzzles.Wynne根据钻石的结构设计了纵横字谜。他给出了35个提示和一个单词。他并不确定纵横字谜是否会受到大众的欢迎。但是已经出现它就取得了成功。
据说纵横字谜是世界上最受欢迎的一种娱乐方式。几乎90%的世界性报纸都会刊登纵横字谜。就美国而言,估计就有三千万粉丝。
大部分的游戏都需要玩伴,但是纵横字谜不需要。可能,这也是它如此受欢迎的原因。任何人在任何地方都可以玩。
人们相信大部分玩纵横字谜的人只是娱乐而已。大部分字谜爱好者不是为了教育的目的做纵横字谜,而且多数专家怀疑玩字谜学不到什么东西。
纵横字谜的挑战是什么? 大部分的专心致力于此的粉丝说他们想要测试自己的智力。其他的人说他们要测试解答字谜的速度和坚忍性。很多希望他们可以挑战更难的字谜。
