Crossword-like Game
« on: November 09, 2007, 07:20 PM »

Hey peeps,

Let's start a crossword-like game.

I set the ball rolling by giving a word or phrase, you are required to find one specific word that matches it. It has to be a specific word and you'll get a clue to assist you with this specific word.

Example:


"Dough based food" -  ( Clue: Starts with a P and a 5-letter word )

Answer - PIZZA

(Clue: 1st letter is C and it is a 6-letter word)
