Jumble is a word puzzle where you
are given a set of letters which, when arranged in the correct order,
give the un-jumbled word.. A simple example would be the set of letters
"lbujme," which can then be ordered to spell "jumble".
These puzzles are often found in
newspapers, and have four base Jumbles. Once these base Jumbles are
solved, a player uses the circled letters of each base Jumble word to
obtain a new set of letters. This set of letters will then complete a
phrase or sentence. The correct answer usually involves some sort of
visual or verbal pun, relating to an illustration and its caption
published with the puzzle. |

Henri Arnold,
cartoonist for JUMBLE--THAT SCRAMBLED WORD GAME, has kept Jumble
fans' wits sharp for almost 40 years. In 1993, Michael Argirion
joined Arnold as Jumble's new writer. Together, the two men manage
what has become a Jumble "empire" that includes daily and Sunday
puzzles in hundreds of newspapers.
Created in 1954 by
the late Martin Dell, Jumble is one of Tribune Media Services' most
important and popular properties. Using scrambled clue words and a
humorous cartoon that gives visual hints, the deceptively simple
puzzle has attracted legions of fans who enjoy this funny mind
boggler daily. The Jumble family includes Jumble? Plus, Jumble? for
Kids?, Jumble? Crosswords?, Jumble? Crosswords for Kids? and
TumbleWords?; dozens of Jumble puzzle books; and other Jumble
merchandise, including interactive games.
