Crossword Master Puzzle 1,617
Answers

Crossword Master Puzzle 1,617 sits in Puzzles 1601-1700 and holds 20 clues, the longest answer being SPARKLE at 7 letters. That is a substantial board, enough that checking off what you already have is faster than re-reading the whole list.

This is a clue game, so the useful thing on this page is the clue text itself. If you are stuck on one line, find that exact wording in the table below rather than reading a bare list of answers — clues identify a puzzle far more reliably than answers do, because answers repeat across a game and clues rarely do.

12 of the 20 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 puzzle sits in the 1,601–1,700 block, with puzzle 1,616 and puzzle 1,618 linked at the foot of the page.
