Roy Johnson's Cryptic Midi #2

-

Hey guys, long time no blog. It's me, Roy Johnson. Nice to see you again. 

It has been awhile since this blog has been in use. About seventeen months since my last crossword. And over two years since my last cryptic crossword. Fittingly, this is another cryptic midi. I feel like midis are better for helping me get out of my crossword funk. Stretch out my cryptic writing muscles. I'm still learning the ropes of cryptic cluing but I'm doing my best. I like how this one turned out. I can't promise this'll be a full return to crossword making but we'll see how it goes. Anyway, hope you enjoy. 😊

Special thanks to DragonEngineer97, Skaldskaparmal, thatotherdavidguy, and Frisco17 for test solving and helping with the cryptic. Your feedback was greatly appreciated.

Also, if you ever stream yourself playing this cryptic, let me know. I would love to catch the solve live or watch the VOD.

All Rise! (Collab with KarshGames)

Hello, people of the internet. It's me, Roy Johnson, back at it again with another crossword puzzle. This time I have something very special. My first ever collab puzzle on the blog. This was a special collaboration between myself and KarshGames, a fellow crossword streamer and crossword setter in the making. (He's already working on his next puzzle. Get hyped.) For this special collab, we have provided a simple offering today: a 15x15 themeless (although with a couple law/courtroom-related words sprinkled in the mix). This is Karsh's first puzzle and I helped make sure it came out as good as it could be. I'm sure you all will have a blast with it. Thanks to everybody who gives this puzzle a try. Karsh's comments on the puzzle:  This was a lot of fun, and it's definitely kickstarted a new hobby for me. I'm already working on a puzzle of my own! Check out Karsh's channel here . You should give him a follow. He's a chill dude! 👍 [  Full Screen  |  PUZ...
