Spent the best part of a minute fixating on the "cross" group thinking "Criss" was just a red herring for Kris (Kross - the hip hop duo) before the more obvious phrase (and correct spelling thereof!) dawned on me... good work sir!

Top up. Didn't get the top category. I didn't try hard enough. Got nine thought and enjoyed it. Good puzzle.

Good fun puzzle. Monopoly is a classic!
(7 years, 1 month ago)

Um
Can't "hat" and "dog" switch places? I think it's ambiguous for those two, since both fit both categories.

Not a good wall - not one unique solution.

Good grid. Enjoyed it thoroughly although there is an error. The Monopoly pieces I put in pieces in Monopoly which it didn't accept and it should of the Top category Top Dog could also work as well as Top Hat, so nice red herring. All and all a hard grid to crack but not that hard. Thumbs up!

Enjoyed this one - liked the cross overs.

Too much crossover between Monopoly and Top. Multiple valid permutations.

Good grid. Liked to ambiguity with which category iron was in.

loved it, thanks

Good wall, pretty straightforward.
Some people obviously don't get the point that there are supposed to be words which fit into more than one category. It's what makes it more challenging to solve.

3/10

A good board doesn't just include items that can fit in more than one category for the sake of it. A great board actually makes sure that those items might fit at first if the person solving the board establishes too broad of a connection.

This one doesn't.

And I'm not talking just about the Shrek line, I'm talking about the Victoria line as well. There are multiple such items here.

Kudos on the Boot line, tho.

Wasn’t aware a battleship was a monopoly piece. Otherwise good board.

Great, but I wrote 'cartoon' which i feel should have been correct

Loved it!
(5 years, 6 months ago)

Heather
Great grid, but I wrote, “movies” instead of films...surely that should be correct?
(5 years, 6 months ago)

As others have pointed out, there is more than one unique solution - so not a good wall.
Shouldn't be on the Best grids list

Grid should have one unique solution. Hat & Dog could be swapped in their categories.

Part of making it a good wall is that is HAS more than one solution - a couple of things to throw you off.

GREAT, JUST MISSED THE 'TOP' CONNECTION. PLENTY OF RED HERRINGS, LOTS OF FUN.
(4 years, 7 months ago)

J
Like others, I think the Top/Dog interchangeability spoils it, as you can burn lives on the last categories even if you select sets of words that fit the given criteria.

andy
should also accept cartoon
(3 years, 11 months ago)

Malcolm
I think some of these comments re hat and dog are incorrect. The Monopoly piece is very specifically a TOP Hat and as the clue was simply HAT, then Hat is a perfect fit for TOP but not for Monopoly. This is exactly the sort of red herring that these puzzles are meant to have, surely?
(3 years, 11 months ago)

Kuba
I do think the dog/hat commenters have a point. These are not red herrings, but they are actually completely interchangeable. That's not the same thing.

Did like the grid, though. I didn't even spot the interchangeability until I read the comments.
(3 years, 11 months ago)

Awol
Liked it. Does it really matter if it does not accept cartoons/movies? Surely you can decide whether you are right or wrong and score yourself accordingly... then move on!
