Crosswords are probably one of the most common of pencil puzzles. Tips and tricks to complete this poser of unfamiliar names, dates and cryptic combinations in a single seating is within one's reach. Short of attempting the weekend crossword which focuses on everyday topics with the occasional dash of mystery, those from the old school may prefer puzzles in tune with their preferred subject matter of interest. Themes can range from celebrities to history, science to cooking, and many more. Regardless of topic, the plan of attack is generally the same. One must first have sufficient knowledge in the matter. As vocabulary is relatively essential to move effectively across the grid, one should have good command of the needed language with a comprehensive dictionary handy. Otherwise, one should justifiably be afraid, be very afraid to proceed.

For a beginner, it is best to solve pencil puzzles of smaller dimensions before attempting to fly with the eagles. Being less discouraging if one cannot achieve completion, it drives one to try for another. It also accounts for less optical damage as one may not be able to see straight after spending hours on a puzzle spanning half a page on the newspaper. As most read from left to right, up to down, it is best to apply the same principle with these pencil puzzles. Tips and tricks may vary from one expert to the other, with some advocating the clustered method of solving across and immediately downward. Others may advise the player to complete all the questions across and then embark on the downward direction. Either way, it is entirely up to the player's preference as he or she hones talent with time.

If one is stumped and see no way forward, time can sometimes be the saving grace to solve pencil puzzles. Taking respite from the pressure of completion, a coffee break may help to ease pent-up stress and provide inspiration to the perplexed player.

For an equal degree of mental onslaught in company, the age-old game of Hangman may be the pastime of choice. As the purpose is to guess the other's secret word via a progressive revelation of alphabets before one's neck pays the price, it is essential to start off on the right footing. Common alphabets for the language in play never fail in showing a sufficient clue to the word. Since no dictionary is permitted, vocabulary is imperative for victory.
