Cross bishop to steer video game machine (4)
I believe the answer is:
xbox
'video game machine' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'cross bishop to steer' is the wordplay.
'cross' becomes 'x' (an X is a cross).
'bishop' becomes 'B' (abbreviation for bishop in chess).
'to steer' becomes 'ox' (a steer is a castrated ox).
'x'+'b'+'ox'='XBOX'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
