Very fun!!!!!! Got lost in the steps but I loved it!!!
I got them all! Hew was hard because I wasn't sure what it meant but I looked it up to confirm it. Interesting puzzle.
Got it -- but got stuck on "chomp" for word 5, giving "chop" for both 6 and 7.
Not too hard, not too easy. Just right. Good one.
I found it difficult, for some reason. Well done, Math, thanks for posting.
Idid not even try.Too time consuming for me. Glad some liked it.
Pretty easy, but still fun to solve. Will look up the others in the series
I had that problem too, norcekri. But hey, at least I got the first half.
Nice n easy teaser, thanks!
Fun and entertaining teaser; I did not get chew and hew.
Great difficulty level! Nice teaser.
Original and fun. Exercises some novel thought patterns. Requires some trial and error, some free association (of sorts). Very cool.
Apparently 3 years ago I knew the word "hew" and now I don't. That's not good!
