The puzzles will tend to get harder and harder as you progress further.Brain Teasers shows off some outrageously fun new mindbenders, like:
  • Anasearches (a combination of an anagram, a crossword, and a word search),
  • Numberlockers (think of a crossword puzzle with numbers instead of words),
  • Alphabetics (a miniature crossword puzzle that uses each letter of the alphabet exactly once).
  • And more!
