Stuck on a Crossword Clue? Discover the Answer to the Italian Lawn Game!

As a detective solving the mystery of the crossword clue ‘Italian lawn game‘, I initially considered all of the Italian games I knew – calcio storico, scopa, morra, pallone, and many others. However, none of them fit the description of a lawn game. I then looked more closely at the clue and realized that the word “lawn” could be a key part of the answer. I started thinking about outdoor games that are played on grass and Bocce quickly came to mind. Bocce is a traditional Italian game that involves rolling balls along a flat surface, usually a grassy lawn, with the intent of getting as close as possible to a smaller target ball called the pallino. The word ‘bocce‘ itself means “bowls” in Italian. With this realization, I confidently entered the answer “BOCCE” into the crossword, feeling satisfied that my sleuthing had paid off and the mystery had been solved.
