2012 Crosswords Archive

Take a well-deserved break and try your hand at some of these goodies. Every word in the RF Cafe crossword puzzles is specifically related to engineering, mathematics, and science. There are no generic backfill words like many other puzzles give you, so you'll never see a clue asking for the name of a movie star or a mountain on the Russia-China border.

All of these crossword puzzles were created using the fabulous Crossword Express (now called "Magnum Opus") software.

They aim to make puzzles that are both challenging and enjoyable for crossword enthusiasts.

The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity.
