In CrosScan, the items in the list are clues. The answers are found in the letter block.

Each puzzle has a theme, and every answer will fit into this theme. The theme is hidden through the use of double meanings in the clues, and will gradually emerge as the puzzle is worked.

When all the words are found and circled, the leftover letters spell out a short quote relating to the theme.
