My rating: EasyMy score: Perfect
This was a spectacularly easy Strands puzzle. If the words ‘Medieval marvel’ didn’t immediately conjure up a CASTLE to you, well, then, you didn’t spend as much time during your childhood playing with Lego, reading The Lord of The Rings or watching Robin Hood as I did.
I got the spangram right away, and that made the task of finding the other answers all the easier. None were remotely hard to think of or difficult to uncover, and I completed the whole thing in about three minutes.
