Product Information:
LYRIQ International Corporation introduces "Crosswords-The Player's Choice";
a program for your PC featuring the broadest selection of crosswords 
from the highest quality publishers.  With puzzles from publishers like 
The Washington Post, CROSSW RD Magazine, and Penny Press, and soon, 
The New York Times and Los Angeles Times, players can choose from beginner 
crosswords to some of the most challenging and provocative developed 
by top constructors such as William Lutwiniak and Eric Albert.  

We used the latest software technology and expert designers to develop a 
product that makes solving crosswords on the PC a new and enjoyable 
experience.  Using Crossplay (TM), users can customize the interface to 
match the way they like to solve crosswords.  We introduced features like 
Double Clue (TM), which provides an alternative clue to help solve those 
tough words, and Checks-n-Xs (TM), which uses audio and visual signals to 
inform you whether words are right or wrong as you solve the puzzle.  We 
also feature Auto-Hints, which will automatically highlight letters that 
have been entered incorrectly.  Or, for the true expert, we have tournament 
mode, which offers no hints or additional clues, and challenges the player 
to solve a crossword as best they can within a determined time limit as 
they would in national tournaments.  Whatever the skill level, 
Lyriq Crosswords - The Player's Choice is loaded with features that could 
make you as enthusiastic as President Clinton about crosswords.
