kruisterms

Kruisterms, also known as crosswords or crossword puzzles, are a type of word game that originated in the late 19th century. The objective of kruisterms is to fill a grid with words, with each word intersecting with another word at least once. The grid is typically a square or rectangular shape, with black squares representing spaces that cannot be filled with letters. Players are given a set of clues that correspond to the words in the grid, with some clues running across the grid and others running down the grid.

Kruisterms are typically created by a puzzle constructor, who designs the grid and writes the clues. The constructor must ensure that the words in the grid are valid and that the clues are clear and unambiguous. The difficulty of a kruisterms can vary depending on the length of the words, the number of intersecting words, and the complexity of the clues.

Kruisterms are popular in many countries and are often featured in newspapers, magazines, and online platforms. They are also used as a tool for language learning and as a form of mental exercise. Kruisterms can be solved by hand or with the help of a computer program, and there are many variations of the game, including themed kruisterms and cryptic kruisterms.
