How to Play the First to Publish Blues Music Crossword
The goal of the game is to be the first player to correctly guess all of the clues.
To play, each player will need a pencil and paper. One player will start by giving a clue for a word on their list. The other players will then take turns guessing letters for that word. If a letter is in the word, the player who gave the clue will write it in its correct spot. If the letter guessed is not in the word, the player who gave the clue will cross it off their list.
The game continues until one player has correctly guessed all of their words or there are no more words left on any player’s list. At that point, players will tally up their score and the player with the highest score wins!
Scoring:
For each word guessed correctly, players will earn 1 point. If a player uses all of their guesses before they guess the word correctly, they will lose 2 points.
Strategy:
Since players earn points for every correct guess and lose points for every incorrect guess, it is important to try and minimize incorrect guesses. One way to do this is to give clues that are specific but not too specific. For instance, if a player is trying to guess the word “cat,” they might give the clue “a feline animal.” This would be specific enough that it would eliminate most other words but not so specific that it would only eliminate one word.
Conclusion
The Crossword is complete!
We have successfully compiled a list of all the artists who were first to publish their own recordings of blues music. We hope you have enjoyed this musical journey through time!
