PUZZLE #168: The Block List

PUZZLE #168
THE BLOCK LIST

In each numbered row of squares, fill in the squares of each color with one of the given words below from the set of that color, keeping the letters in their original order, so that the entire row spells out a single longer word. However, you have to figure out what each smaller, color-coded word is based on the clues given.

Once you're done with the first four rows, enter the letters of the remaining words into the last row of squares similarly to spell out the FINAL ANSWER: an edutainment computer game from the '90s whose title is more than one word.


RED WORDS
* "The ___ have it"
* Make illegal
* Life history, for short
* Finn created by Mark Twain

BLUE WORDS
* Musical Fox show with coach Sue Sylvester
* Licensed to _____ (Beastie Boys album)
* Make an attempt
* Blood vessel

GREEN WORDS
* Creepy, like a Great Lake?
* Former 49er Jerry
* One end of a Q-tip
* How to _____ Your Dragon

ORANGE WORDS
* Elizabethan and Victorian, for two
* Helga's older sister in Hey Arnold!
* Classic 1993 adventure game where you travel through "linking books"
* _____ Blade (Billy Bob Thornton film)

Once you believe you've figured out the FINAL ANSWER, send it to either redhead64@chartermi.net or itsredhead64@gmail.com (though I'm more likely to check the second one) and I'll put your name on a solvers list once I post the answers in about two weeks. You can also use those email addresses to give me some comments and feedback (or get a hint from me in exchange for a "hint star", more details for that are on the sidebar to the right) or send me the answer to last week's puzzle, if you haven't already figured it out. If you have a printer and want to solve this puzzle on paper, just head below the break for a version you can print out!
