tidbits(r) is an original word game that takes the best part of a crossword puzzle and puts it in a new form. Instead of obscure words and references, tidbits(r) puzzles have a 'tidbit' - a sequence of letters that is part of every correct answer in a section of the puzzle. The effect is like a crossword puzzle half-solved, beginning at the point when the pace picks up and answers seem to pop into place. There's also a Hangman-style challenge in every tidbits(r) puzzle.
