Acrostic No. 28

A hidden sentence, revealed by the answers to its clues. The clock starts when you press start — not before.

How to play
  1. The board is a hidden sentence, one square per letter.
  2. Answer a clue and its letters appear in the sentence, wherever they belong.
  3. Or type a word you can read out of the sentence — it fills in where it stands, and completes the answers those letters belong to.
  4. Every letter belongs to exactly one answer, and nothing is marked wrong: a word that is not in the puzzle simply does not take.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Albus Dumbledore · 2004

Dumbledore, at the end-of-year feast in the film. The line is the screenwriter's — it does not appear in the book.

Clues

Two ways in. Type an answer from the list above and its letters appear in the sentence. Or type a word you can guess from the sentence itself — it fills in where it stands, and completes the answers those letters belong to. Every letter of the sentence belongs to exactly one answer, and the small number on a tile is its position in the sentence. Hover a clue to see which tiles it owns.
