Aries Six Pack #6

I'm happy to announce that Six Pack #6 is now available to purchase!

By now, you probably know the drill, but just in case you are new here: Six Pack #6 includes six never-before-published Rows Gardens in PDF form in four levels of difficulty, a set of solutions, and RGZ files for digital solving. The PDF layout is exactly the same as it has been since 2019, so long-time solvers will be very familiar with how these puzzles look as well as how they solve. In order to maintain continuity with the overall Aries Rows Garden series, the puzzles in this pack are officially classified as Year 13, Puzzles 7 through 13.

Order Six Pack #6 for just $6 using the Paypal applet below. If you'd like to discuss payment options other than Paypal, just send me an email. If you've already preordered the Six Packs in 2026, you will be automatically emailed all puzzles, so no further payment is necessary.

The Paypal applet also allows you to purchase Six Pack #5, released in March of this year. For many more Rows Garden Six Pack and bundles available for purchase, head over to the Rows Garden Archive

Happy solving!

Marching Bands #10

Aries Marching Bands #10 - PDF | JPZ | Solution (PDF)

Back with another Marching Bands this month. The strength of a Marching Bands puzzle depends mainly on the ability to get longish entries among the Bands. This puzzle has 24 total Band entries, a low that I've hit a few times, and I do think those grids are my favorite among MBs. Always a fun challenge to write one of these. As is standard, I've got the puzzle available in both PDF and JPZ formats. To solve digitally, first download the JPZ file, then head over to Crossword Nexus, select the file, and have at it. Either way you solve, hope you enjoy!

On the Rows Garden front, the second Six Pack of 2026 is just on the horizon, to be officially released this Friday, June 26. This latest Six Pack came together very nicely and I'm excited to have solvers get their hands on it. Stay tuned for more details.

Happy solving,
