HexaCross

How to Play HexaCross

HexaCross differs from regular crosswords in a number of ways. First, the Across (or Row) entries don't intersect with Down words or phrases but with 6-letter Hexagram entries. Second, you can only tell in which position a hexagram starts and in which direction it flows -- clockwise or counterclockwise -- from the context of the Row clues. Finally, in the 10 longer rows, there are two separate and separately clued entries that total 21 characters, and you have to determine where the first ends and the second begins. In the top and bottom rows, a single clue is provided for the 9-character answers.
