Crossword Jam Level 1,249
Answers

Crossword Jam Level 1,249 sits in New Zealand and holds 18 words, the longest answer being ENCLOSE at 7 letters. That is a substantial board, enough that checking off what you already have is faster than re-reading the whole list.

Every answer below carries its letter count, which is the fastest way to match an empty slot: counting the squares in a gap and scanning for that exact length beats reading the list from the top. Answers are listed in the order the game accepts them, so the page reads the way the level plays.

5 of the 18 answers run to three letters or fewer, which is where levels like this are usually lost. The long answers go in quickly; it is the short ones filling the gaps between them that get missed, because they are easy to read straight past.

This level sits in the 1,201–1,300 block, with level 1,248 and level 1,250 linked at the foot of the page.
