 ## Example: full symmetry puzzles
 As an example of how blacksquare's abstractions allow for non-trivial crossword construction, consider the [June 6 2023 NYT puzzle](https://www.xwordinfo.com/Crossword?date=6/6/2023), which displays not only a rotationaly symmetric grid but a rotationally symmetric *fill*. While this might seem daunting to build, all we have to do is override a couple methods of the base Crossword class, and use some modified wordlists.
