Publisher's Synopsis
Word Puzzles Are Fun!You will solve a series of word puzzles, where you have to guess missing letters that, if guessed correctly, will help complete words. Some of the puzzles are super easy; some of them will necessitate peeking at the answers. Have fun!It's a great way to unwind at the end of a long dayOn some days, you want to relax, unwind, and forget the world. There are many ways to do this; a book of word puzzles is an interesting non-intuitive way to achieve rest, relaxation, and a non-tiring level of mental stimulation. The puzzles in this book are designed to offer both diversion and challenge; in case you are very tired, you can just skip the more difficult puzzles in every chapter, or just look at their solutions (and convince yourself that you were a second away from discovering the solution on your own). You can, in a sense, choose your own "skill level" while reading through this book; questions are at varying levels of difficulty, you can avail of hints to help you uncover a few of the letters you seek to complete the two words in every puzzle, and the answers are always available in case you want to watch a walkthrough rather than put your brain through minutes of hard toil. Of course, the dopamine released when we solve either a step of the puzzle or crack the complete solution is a welcome boost to our ego; it is always a good thing to end the day with a sense of accomplishment, however small. Simply put, solving word games will make you happy.It can improve your social skills!At first glance, it might seem that a person quietly solving word puzzles in a corner is unlikely to be the life and soul of a typical party. However, the skills you gain from clever manipulation of words and phrases improve your linguistic skills. After a while of this, as you level up, you are likely to become a smoother talker and a more skilled conversationalist. After all, clever word play and unexpected puns might cause groans, but they also elicit laughter, and make their originators more popular. And, in the digital world we live in today, the most celebrated members of a social circle are often those who send the most interesting forwards on social media groups. A set of difficult word puzzles definitely falls in that category; there is more than one way to be the focus of a social group!It features a unique word game formatMost of us are familiar with Crosswords, and Scrabble. Some of us have encountered Anagrams, or played Words With Friends. The word games in this book, however, are in a unique format that you might not have seen before. The best part is that you can understand the format and start solving your first puzzle in 5 seconds flat.It helps you improve your concentration and focusAs our daily lives increasingly revolve around electronic devices and bite-sized pieces of content, we grow ever more accustomed to jumping from one diversion to another. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but it does affect our ability to create something intricate that requires many hours of concentrated focus; in extreme cases, it can even lead to lower output at work or school, as we become less and less good at spending time thinking about one particular problem before being distracted by that cute cat or dog we saw on YouTube the previous night at 3 AM, when we should have been asleep. Luckily for you, word puzzles like those in this book can change the game, and slowly restore your ability to focus the full fire of your attention on a seemingly insurmountable problem, and give you the rush of seeing that problem melt in front of you and reveal its secrets to your satisfied mind.
