Sweet thing right to invest in crooked game? (6,4)
I believe the answer is:
brandy snap
'sweet thing' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'right to invest in crooked game?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'right' could be 'r' (common abbreviation) and 'r' is located in the answer.
'crooked' could be 'bandy' (I've seen this before) and 'bandy' is present in the remaining letters.
'game?' could be 'p' (I have seen 'French game ' mean 'p' so perhaps 'game' could also mean 'p') and 'p' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for brandy snap that I've seen before include "Crisp confection" , "Crisp, rolled biscuit" , "Cookie" , "Crisp ginger biscuit" , "Cream-filled gingerbread wafer" .)
