“I order cryptoquotes all the time. So far, this is the BEST one I have come across. It is very well put together, offers a wide variety of entertaining quotes and two separate clue options to consult.” ~ X-tinaG
“Good sized book. Enough space to write your solutions. Very good puzzles, can be challenging – due to the fact that sometimes a letter is the actual letter in the solutions. An ‘e’ in the jumble MAY be an ‘e’ in the actual word!” ~Â ANDRE CHIASSON
Cryptogram Puzzles: Cryptoquotes Puzzle Book
Cryptogram puzzles can be fun and challenging. A cryptogram is an encoded quote or a famous saying. The challenge is to decrypt it using common sense, logic, determination, and a bit of luck. This book is a collection of 606 cryptoquote puzzles selected from famous wise, funny, witty and entertaining quotes by the world’s most influential personalities.
This puzzle book can be used by a beginner to an experienced person; by a 10 year old to an 80 year old senior. And if the cyphers are challenging any time, we have included two sets of hints after the puzzle section for easy reference.
Large roomy easily readable fonts and plenty of space between lines have been used to print each cryptogram quote. Please use pencil to fill in solutions lightly.
This giant book of puzzles also contains the solutions to all 606 cryptograms as well at the end. And do not forget that this Beautiful Book of Puzzles is a perfect value present that will pass the time while exercising the brain! and last a long time too.
The part where some letters stand for themselves is bad. It interrupts the flow The part where some letters stand for themselves is bad. It interrupts the flow.I check my work at times and the names I don’t recognize and cat finish I look at the solution to verify when done with the puzzle. This particular book I have found a different puzzle solution from the puzzle itself. So no solution to compare.Puzzles 72 and 86 so far have a different solution
Poor! The standard has been violated which is mo … Poor! The standard has been violated which is mo one letter stands for itself. This book seems to be covering an editorial editing error by allowing on letter to represent itself. On page one of this book, this type of error occurs four times, where as the editorial statement states that it may occur :”for interest.”
Inaccurate and does not follow convention Some good quotes but they didn’t bother to make sure that each letter was substituted. For example, an R may be represented by an R, or a U may be represented by a U. There are several mistakes where the hints and solutions don’t match the puzzle by number. Some quotes are repeated. Also, the binding on this book is extremely stiff and it is hard to work close to the binding. Worst cryptogram I have ever used, and I have used a lot.
