"Pet Sounds" by benchen71
Welcome to...
benchen71's Metas on a Tuesday (MOAT)
Can you storm the castle by getting across the MOAT? I can't really say too much about this one without spoiling it, so I won't. The answer to the meta is what you can hear hiding in the puzzle.
The easiest way to submit is on Crosshare (and you get instant feedback and unlimited attempts!) But you can also PM me with your submission. Either way, I'll compile a list of those who successfully solve the meta.
Pet Sounds - Crosshare
Pet Sounds - PUZ
Pet Sounds - PDF
Pet Sounds - spreadsheet
Nudges are here.
The solution is here.

Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!

PS: If you want help with a meta, PM what you have so I can help without spoiling too much. I've received lots of help in the beginning and I love to pay it forward!

Not a meta, but, yeesh!, that was tough to create.

Crossed and stormed! Tried for the quick post-midnight solve, but I just wasn’t made for these times…

Tough fill in the SW corner, but I found a trebuchet and launched myself across the MOAT!

Caught myself overthinking before I found my way across the moat. Thanks, Ben!
