Very professionally prepared, with an excellent format. Its brimful of cryptic puzzles. Its a brainteasing delight. It was reassuring, as a safety net, that answers are given. Students know they can get out, but they need to apply their minds to do so. Very stimulating and also great fun.
Used this with Y10s first week back and was really useful for covering specific questions and techniques thanks
Brilliant concept, worked better with some groups than it did with others.
