Hello - really enjoying the game and have shared it with friends, so don't take this as too harsh of feedback, but just a note - game may be more interesting if the headlines followed more typical English newspaper headline flow? I get that this is a fantasy world so maybe you purposefully have set your own headline rules different from ours, but just mentioning it in case it is unintentional.

For instance Tuesday's solution was "HOW A SKILLFUL MUSICAL PERFORMANCE IS WINNING THE ADORATION OF DEVOTED FANS". In the English speaking world nowadays this would instead be written as something like "SKILLFUL MUSICAL PERFORMANCE WINS ADORATION OF DEVOTED FANS". The formatting being so unlike actual newspaper headlines may be making some unintended extra difficulty... there are extra words pretty much every day vs what would appear in a newspaper.

It is a deliberate choice to make the puzzle flow better by having more small connecting words that you can quickly fill in as a starting point, and ideally more sentence-y syntax you can lean on to work out the structure rather than undifferentiated noun-pile headline.

I’m surprised you think it’s more difficult as a sentence than a headline, can you explain more?

I agree it’s not ideal as a headline, and yes, my excuse is they have a different style guide in Yliad, haha.
