Special Instructions: With thanks to Dingo and Fez (see Mini No 125). TODAY'S TRICKS: 1) SOUNDALIKE: Something that sounds like the answer; ‘Excited as Oscar’s announced (4)’ gives WILD. 2) CAESARISM: All letters shifted up or down by the same amount with a Caesar cipher; 'Have a nap with Caesar's bunny (5)' gives SLEEP.

If stuck, you can find help for half of the clues here: https://cryptii.com/pipes/caesar-cipher

Haha, nicely done thanks tpgrammar - and quick work too! Faves 2a and 2d. Still not sure if this could or even *should* catch on, and I'd think if it did then a maximum of *one* per puzzle! But very interesting to see it in the wild!

Thanks tpg. I solved this but could only parse half the clues, the others were guessed from defs & crossers. Needed your notes. Nice idea.
