Introduction to Crossword Construction

  • Speaker: Clara Fernandez-Vara

This is a brief introduction to the basics of crossword construction - from different types, to tools to construct them, to cultural considerations when it comes to writing clues. Although the focus will be on writing crosswords in English, many of the lessons apply to other languages as well.

This talk was presented at ThinkyCon 2024, a developer conference about all aspects of the creation of thinky games.
