power to create crosswords here on TechRadar. So, I've taken it upon myself
to bring you the first of what I intend to be a weekly TechRadar Crossword. I've always enjoyed finding a quiet moment to sit with a crossword as a way
to start or end my day or pass the time while travelling. I actually
remember first making some when I was a lot younger and forcing my dad to try and solve them while on holiday. I'm sure he only begrudgingly complied.

It wasn't until the Covid-19 lockdown, though, when I spent many hours watching Cracking the Cryptic on YouTube , that I started doing my best to learn the ins and outs of cryptic crosswords. They've been a lot of fun to tackle. Latest Videos From TechRadar Watch full video here:

I've not tried anything as fiendishly difficult for the first outing, though. It's simply a mix of clues related to recent news and everything we know and love here at TechRadar be that tech, games, streaming, AI, and more as well as some of my favorite nerdy interests.

There's a leaderboard, so if you're quick, we'll put your name in lights to show off to the world. Let me know if you enjoy it and I hope you'll be back for the next one. I'll likely keep experimenting with clues and the construction over time to make this a fun little weekly challenge. Good luck! You may like How well do you actually know Google's tech?
