It teaches two types of cryptic clues, and then you have to pay to unlock the rest of the chapters.

This far (I only finished section 1), I have learned how to do more than I've learned with things like the Minute Cryptic (which I also really like). I know it was an easier start, but it's been a great tutorial and finally a nice place to start. I will say some of the ways the solving section is built is awkward, but that's me being a bit picky since I'm using it to teach others as I learn too. Edit: ... Of course, it had a paywall right after I said that. I think $7 CAD is pretty expensive 😭
