honestlouWord puzzle for those who enjoy that sort of thing
My sister-in-law was doing puzzles on her phone and showed me this one, which I thought y'all might enjoy.
The object is to solve the puzzle, as in fill in the words that are shown in blank. The image above, in this case a word with three of the letters in bold, is a clue. The letters below the blanks are the letters to be used, and the sub-numbers "2" indicate that each of those letters are used twice... ie., there are two A's and two L's. Other letters are used once each.
If you get it, please just reply "I got it" and please don't reply with the answer! At least for a while, so others may play!

flashguyI got it, but I can't make it work. (I know what the words are, but can't put letters in the boxes.)

trapper189It took longer to read the instructions than to figure out the phrase. I got it.

What do you guys mean? It's just a screenshot, not an interactive screen. If you know the words, you got the puzzle.

It's not like I myself struggled for over an hour trying to move those damn letters around.

honestlouIt is indeed just a screen shot. In all my lengthy instructions I didn't realize I had to spell that out! And this is not my puzzle- I just thought y'all might like it when I saw it. Y'all know why.

SigfestGot it. I think. Lol. Must have been real easy for this guy who can’t visualize to figure it out.
February 12, 2020, 09:03 PM
architectgot it. For me it turned on figuring out one of the words, then the rest just sort of fell into place.

RipleyWell yes I have the title or phrase but why is the first blank square different and I'm missing how the DNA in damnation is a clue.
