Yea! I love crossword puzzles. I do find alot of the ones in newspapers normally hard but this one should be easy especially since I have the books to cheat if I really get stuck. My son can't wait till I print it off for him.

Not a bad idea, this crossword, a tad easy though :-(
Maybe some of us can make other games that are more for the older readers/fans. Hey HPANA, couldn't you make a special section of harry potter games, where, if you win you gain points for your account? Maybe there's already something like that but haven't seen it yet ^^. I don't frequent HPANA every day, more like once or twice a week.

I downloaded that from TLC yesterday! It was too easy though, it was a big enough crossword, but none of the clues were very hard. I guess it wasn't designed for quite such die-hard fans as us.

This one looks quite easy, most answers can be found sipmly by watching the movies. It would be fine to get a more difficult one, with clues refrring to slight details of the book. Something to really make people read carefully, and test their memory.
