Cryptic crosswords
are crossword puzzles of a special type: one in which each clue is a word puzzle in and of itself. Cryptic crosswords are particularly popular in the United Kingdom, as well as in several other Commonwealth nations, including, Kenya, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and India. In the United States, cryptics are sometimes known as "British-style" crosswords. For the most part, they are an English-language phenomenon, although similar puzzles are popular in a Hebrew form in Israel (where they are called
tashbetsey higayon
"Logic crosswords") and (as
Cryptogrammen
) in Dutch. In Poland similar crosswords are called "Hetman crosswords". 'Hetman' in their name emphasises their importance over other crosswords.
Cryptic crossword puzzles come in two main types: the basic cryptic in which each clue answer is entered into the diagram normally, and the advanced or "variety" cryptic, in which some or all of the answers must be altered before entering, usually in accordance with a hidden pattern or rule which must be discovered by the solver.
