## What is Lazy Dog Word Puzzle Volume 1?

If you do crosswords of any kind or codewords, then there is a good chance you will enjoy the challenge of a Lazy Dog word puzzle.

Full Puzzle Description
Take a look at the 3rd and 4th screenshots (entitled Tutorial).

Brief Puzzle Description
The 26 letters of the alphabet are arranged two per row in a 13 row grid. You have to put a word in each row which incorporates the row's two letters. But that's not all. You must contrive a group of 13 words that, between them, contain TWO whole alphabets (i.e. at least 2 As, at least 2 Bs, etc). The puzzle itself supplies one whole alphabet; it is up to you to supply the other one.

Each puzzle has many different solutions. Finding one, however, is not easy.

Fluorophore is a word!!!!!!

But seriously I love this app, please make a volume 2 :))))

### 5/5 — Fun and challenging

*2021-11-30*

Really enjoyed these puzzles. I found them unique and challenging, and I had a lot of fun coming up with interesting words to use for each one. I loved that for some puzzles, it felt like the challenge was in managing to use every letter of the alphabet, but for others it was difficult to come up with a word for some of the provided combinations at all! I also felt that the app itself functioned very well, and that it’s design overall was pleasantly simple and effective. Would happily download future packs if any were to come.
