Nice one. I think "Saint Kitts" alone should suffice. It works in every other Jetpunk test...

I would accept just "St Kitts" but I guess it's just because it's a crossword and exact spelling is required in all crosswords of mine.

Maybe you can change the Iceland clue to cold European country without any land borders? By most standards Ireland is quite cold too and fits in the crossword. I don’t think anyone will get it wrong, but it’s always nice to be more accurate if possible.

Could we change some of the clues? Persian Gulf seems to be way overused. May I suggest "home to Tabriz" for Iran and "The Burj Khalifa was built here" for UAE?

Love this series! Could you accept DR for Dominican Republic? I would also suggest making Eritrea's clue "Official languages are Arabic, English, and Tigrinya" or "Has the capital Asmara" since I was guessing it and got Djibouti on accident. Granted, Djibouti doesn't fit in 7 letters, but it might still be nice to avoid two Horn of Africa clues.

I like the clue "country above the US". It reminds me of that handy fact "Chicago is at the bottom of Lake Michigan"

A couple of little typos: in 22 down it should read "Formerly known as..." and in 7 down "hosts" should be singular, I believe.

wales is a country itself not a part of a different country

Wales is a constituent country within the United Kingdom - just like Greenland within the Kingdom of Denmark.

Wales is not a sovereign country.

Really nice :) If you designed the whole grid yourself that's just awesome. My only suggestion would be to make the clues harder, since as you fill in the crossword the partly completed words provide big clues already.

Best comment! It's actually the original 'Crossword - "A Words"' quiz in Excel, without any letters which I've used as the thumbnail on all of the crossword quizzes.

Love it though!

even though some you just figure out based on the clues given out...and some even spoiled by part of their name...10/10 fun quiz want MORE please! maybe a bit harder clues next time but great job!

also I kinda panicked on the mystery country cause I'm terrible at arranging letters to form country names but luckily this one wasn't so hard!

+1
Level 79
Jul 25, 2024
That's good to hear! I will definitely keep making more - but there are lots on my profile for the time being :)

The letters in the mystery country read from top to bottom, left to right so they are already in the order!

Ah, that's a shame, I'm not sure why this is the only Crossword quiz without a caveat/description which includes the fact that there's a "mystery country" that needs guessing too!
