How it works
Paste a whole list of clues and answers at once, or add them one by one, in the Question | ANSWER format — the puzzle builds instantly, no account needed.
Want to hide a message in it? Enter a secret word or phrase and its letters get scattered across the grid — solvers reveal it as they answer the clues.
Not happy with how the words fell into place? Open the Algorithm dropdown in the puzzle's controls panel and pick from six layout algorithms — each one deterministic, so the same clues always rebuild the exact same grid instead of a random reshuffle.
Want it to look the part too? Pick a decorative template for themed artwork and a title, upload your own images, or both — the grid, the clues, and every image can be dragged and resized to fit exactly how you want. The arrangement you set is exactly what prints.
