I don't think so, some questions are quite difficult, but that's as it should be?

I only missed Nutria, which sounds like a breakfast bar, frankly. But I loved it! Some should be hard!!

Personally, yes. After my first go through I think I had four answers. I have never heard of the third answer, that threw me totally and if you miss one it can (and does in this case) make it blinking difficult to get back on track.

Looking at the other comments most people seem to have found it ok though, so maybe it's just me.

It was hard. Not too hard, 100% first try, no cheating and I am not native English. I did much worse on the 5-letter one, missed 5 or 6 of them there.

15/22 sounds like a good average to me. Never heard of diadem until today.

Hmm I guess you never read or watch Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows. There was a lost diadem that was very important in the plot.

not at all difficult, the weird animal (#3) was the only one i missed, i concur with sami in that i thought the answer sounds like something healthy to eat

quite hard! But that is fine, nothing wrong with the questions (like if only a specific group of people could get them, no "in-crowd questions")

Might be me, but I do have a slight doubt on the infirm clue. It doesn't seem very solid. (originally no pun intended, but after I saw it, pun intended ;) )

Having lived all my life in England, I was not aware of any alternative word for the animal we call a coypu. I guess that's the second new word I've learned today.

Apparently it is called beverrat in dutch and it is often call waterbunny (because rat has negative connotations) Interesting !

Plus Nutria is a babyfood company. Correction, looked it up and that would be Nutricia haha

I'm imagining a scheme where someone convinces people that "Nutria" is a new miracle diet supplement, and then after people buy it, it turns out that it's just a big wet rat.

What is a Diadem? It's a crown. Well, why didn't you just say that?

I feel like maybe "infirm" should also have something in the lines of "crippled" in the definition?
