The Applications of Fairness

As I have mentioned, I really like working puzzles and games.  Earlier today, I was working a puzzle of the type called 'Code Crosswords' or simply 'Codewords'.  To solve, you must find out what letters have been substituted with numbers and fill them into the grid.  Every letter of the alphabet is used.  Sometimes, letters are given for a few of the numbers.  This puzzle did not; you needed to figure out the 'Q' to help solve it first.  Unfortunately, I couldn't determine the 'Q' exactly between two choices and I had to make an educated guess.  I made the right one, but my problems continued.  Normally, only common to uncommon words are used.  This publisher frequently uses unusual words.  One of the words from today wasn't even listed in my regular dictionary; I had to look in a second one afterwards just to make sure it was a real word!  Furthermore, this publisher has a habit of using multi-word phrases as a single entry.  Not compound words, actual phrases.  Maybe it is just me from having gotten to another publishers rules, but I find this publisher's techniques to be a little unfair.  If I had started with them, maybe I would accept their construction rules.  Since I started with another publisher's rules, I have a problem with this one's.  I would cite an example, but I don't want to show my ignorance if the example was actually for common then I thought.  On a further note on games, as I was updating the store website recently, I noticed that I now have the option for installed a game application to the site.  While such an option would greatly appeal to me,  I worry that it would not go over too well with the site' target audience.  The main option is a row-clearing game, typically found everywhere.  What do you think?  There are options for limited branding to the site's design, but it still seems off for the website.
