Piñones: Bite-Sized Crosswords with a Twist
app.pinones.io
More than just clues and answers. Every solved Piñones crossword reveals letters for a final, hidden phrase. It's a crossword, an anagram, and a riddle, all in one.

I’m listing it as a Sunday hard but I don’t think this one should give too much trouble!

    I got the anagram just by spotting it, what the devil is the aussie connection? (pun intended)

    Add a minute or two to my time because I accidentally closed my tab and had to restart after I had already figured out the crossword.

    I don’t think I “get it” this time. Usually I do, but I’m not seeing th connection between the title and the solved puzzle.

      Okay here I go trying the spoiler thing again 🤣

      spoiler

      !So it’s a play on a homophone, “sounds like Aussie” = Ozzy, referencing Ozzy Osbourne, who also goes by the answer of the puzzle :)!<

        Spoiler worked on my end!

        I get it now.

        I suppose the reason I didn't get it before is

        I’m not too familiar with Ozzy Osbourne and didn’t know that.

          Totally fair! I thought it was slightly more fair due to recent events, but I left it for Sunday on purpose cause I knew it wouldn’t be as well known as the usual answers!

    I had difficulty understanding the pun, and got to the solve eventually, mostly through luck. Some of the clues were tricky, but worked out in the end. good job.
