I was really bummed to find out there is no Online updation feature for acquiring new puzzles. I guess it's to keep you coming back to the print medium, but in a digital age, a feature like this should almost be default.

True, but 1000 crosswords would take me forever to complete. I think this game is genious. I could see buying it and a DS for my grandpa and him loving it.

I had a quick play of it, and it seemed like a lot of the clues are geared to New Yorkers - which I suppose is appropriate, but makes a little less relevant for the rest of us.
