Knotwords
Knotwords is a minimal and elegant logic puzzle — with words. Arrange each section so every word across and down is valid. It may look difficult at first, but you'll be surprised at how quickly you pick it up! This is the kind of game I've been trying to design my whole career — I hope you like it

Reviews

“I've been playing it all morning and I'm typing this as fast as possible so I can go right back to playing it all afternoon.”
PC Gamer

“Knotwords is my new daily word-game obsession — The unique, logic-heavy combo of crosswords and kenken tickles my brain just right.”
Ars Technica

“If you like Wordle you should check out Knotwords. It is an incredibly elegant daily word game. What impresses me most is that, despite its deceptively simple appearance, it has clearly been built with a great deal of thought and care.”
Josh Wardle (Creator of Wordle)

About This Game



Knotwords is a minimal and elegant logic puzzle — with words.

The rules are simple: arrange the letters in each section so every word is valid, across and down.

Each puzzle may seem difficult at first — but like all my favorite newspaper puzzles, it gets easier as you progress. Each step guides you naturally towards the solution.

This is the kind of game I've been trying to make my whole career — I'm amazed Jack and I discovered this design. We hope you like it.
