This was a (failed) effort to gain the attention of my 14 yrs old nephew. His life is consumed by a great deal of screentime, mobile, tablet, tv, movies, gaming etc. I offered him a reward if he could solve the puzzle, with help if neccessary, but not a flicker of interest.
An older nephew has taken up the challenge, but weeks later still no solution. I wonder if it is more difficult than I thought, or just lack of application.
My goal was to create something akin to a crossword, but requiring more consideration and reasoning. Also crosswords, even fiendishly hard ones, can easily be completed using solver apps.
A search engine can help with my puzzle, but not until you work out what you are looking for. In this case Google does not have the answer, until you have the question(s).
