Playing CrossWire
Each CrossWire game consists of two rounds, the CrossWire round and the HighWire round.
In the CrossWire round you will play three out of the four categories, try- ing to match nine pairs of clues be- fore time runs out. Every time you correctly match a pair of clues you will win points, but every time you in- correctly match a pair of clues, you will lose points.
If you win 2500 points or more, you will go on to the HighWire round. In the HighWire round you will play only one category, where you must match the eight correct pairs of clues be- fore time runs out, while avoiding the fake clues (also called bombs).
If you can successfully match the clues, you will win big points and fun prizes.
