NPR's weekly word game: match wits with "Weekend Edition" puzzle master Will Shortz.
Episodes
Every answer is a two-word, rhyming phrase in which both words have three syllables. For example, given the clue "unexplained circumstance of the past," the answer would be "history mystery."
You are given a sentence that's missing two words. The word that goes in the first blank has a T in it. Change this to a D, and phonetically, you'll get the word that goes in the second blank.
Every answer is a word, name or familiar phrase starting with K and ending with Y, as in "Kentucky." For example, given the clue "stereotypical fraternity blowout," the answer would be "keg party."
You are given two clues. The first answer is a word that starts with the sound T. Change this to a D, and phonetically you'll get a new word that answers the second clue. For example, if the clue is "to work hard" and "author Conan _______," the answer would be "toil" and "Doyle."
Each answer is a familiar two-word phrase in which the first word ends in R-E and the second word starts with C. For example, if the clue is "text that comes from the Associated Press or Reuters," the answer would be "wire copy."
You are given clues that end in a six-letter word. Rearrange the letters in the last word to get the answer to the clue. For example, given "Jewels a pirate buries," the answer would be "rubies."
