Most puzzles come with instructions (look for the "info" or "about" links) so, even if you're a newbie to the world of online puzzles, you should soon be comfortable navigating your way around the grids.
The classic crossword is considered of moderate difficulty, there are four skill levels to tackle each day in the sudoku section, while the trivia quiz comes with seven categories: General Knowledge, Dictionary, Entertainment, History, Food + Drink, Geography, Science + Nature. Each category contains 10 multiple-choice quiz questions.
You'll get your score at the end of each puzzle so you can see how you rate against others.
