David Fair did a nifty tutorial that shows how to embed crossword puzzle as a web object:https://player.vimeo.com/video/148910722 The only thing is, scoring something like that would be a challenge because even though it's integrated within the course, the actual interaction is independent of Articulate Presenter, so there isn't a way to pass the score or credit to an LMS.
Another option that might work well for you is to create a more linear approach in Quizmaker, where the user completes one word at a time, like Brian shows here: https://player.vimeo.com/video/148911992 That way you could track the score pretty easily.
These are both awesome options. I will review the choices with my customer. Thanks so much - this saved me hours of trying to figure it out myself. I LOVE this forum!
I'm trying to place a crossword puzzle into an Articulate presentation per your instructions above and when I publish the slide that contains the puzzle appears blank. What am I doing wrong?
Hey Debbie, are you using the web object method that David Fair describes here? If so, when you publish, make sure that you test in the environment for which you published (i.e., , if you published for Web, make sure to upload your output to a web server and test it there, rather than testing it from your local hard drive). If you continue to have trouble with your web object, feel free to submit a support case and we can take a look.
@Debbie - The link and reference to Eclipse Crossword is just a bit of hyperlinked text that you can remove from the html file that you generate. To do that, open the html file in Notepad and look for the following string of text and delete it. Then resave the file and reinsert that as your web object.
I used the crossword created using EclipseCrossword as a guide for a crossword I created in Storyline. I did not add much for bells and whistles, and I wanted to share.

This worked, however, how can I take off eclipse crossword references on the puzzle and in the box once the puzzle is complete?
Jeanette, thanks for the 2 screenrs. I've already bookmarked the 2 referred puzzle sites! -k
@Karen - glad you found that info helpful!
