Crossword puzzle

Letter Tiles

You have 2 rows of letter tiles each with a value much like a Scrabble set. Your task is to form a word up to 7 letters, but no less than 3 for each row using the tiles given for that row only. Add up your score as you go.

Remember that you also have double, triple & quad letter bonus squares to use too if you can. Of course, your aim is to find a word that gives you the highest score from the rack of letters you’ve been given. Blank tiles can be used for any letter you wish, but has no score value, and of course your word must be English.

Looper

These puzzles have an ‘infinite’ feel to them insofar as they are a continuous loop of words and not only in one direction, but two. Should you complete this puzzle correctly, you will be able to read your answers no matter in which direction you travel the loop.
