I absolutely LOVE crossword puzzles; in fact, I am actually completing one at this moment, LOL. The New York Times-esque puzzles are exceptionally difficult, so I stick with the easy, large-print ones that you can purchase in any store.

I like crossword puzzles if they are fairly easy, but I prefer word seek puzzles.  They are easier to do and doesn't take as long to finish.

It's been documented that crossword puzzles help exercise the brain, and help to fight off the effects of brain ageing.

That being said, I don't do crossword puzzles. No time.   Should make time...

I love crossword puzzles.

The daily Argus Leader newspaper crossword is challenging, but not so hard that it can't be done.  Most days I can complete the whole puzzle without any trouble.
However, the Sunday crossword, is much harder.  Sometimes I can only get a few; other times, I can complete the whole puzzle.

They are a challenge but fun. I enjoy the adult coloring books right now.

I don't like crossword puzzles so much but love to do at least one logic puzzle every day. I have a subscription to a logic puzzle magazine and they keep me occupied for a couple hours every day. It's good exercise for the brain.

Yes, crossword puzzles are hard. I rarely do them and when I do, it's out of sheer boredom. I don't even finish them.
