About This Game

Solve crosswords. Earn bullets. Start shooting.

CrossSwords is an online Crossword Battle Royale where your answers become your arsenal.

Start each match by solving the same crossword as everyone else. You have a few minutes to fill in as many answers as you can, earn ammo, and hunt for valuable power-ups.

Then the crossword rises around you and transforms into a first-person arena. Black squares become walls and towers. The grid becomes the battlefield. The words you solved determine how much ammunition you bring into the fight.

Now find the other players and start shooting.

Of course… if you run out of ammo… you’ll have to CROSS SWORDS!

Fight your way through the crossword with guns and blades until only one player remains.

FEATURES

• A new puzzle every day! The game syncs with our servers to bring in a new puzzle every day at 12AM Eastern. Or pick from our archive of over 200 crosswords!

• The crossword becomes the map. Every puzzle transforms into its own unique 3D arena built from the grid itself.

• Battle friends and up to 12 players online in a Crossword Battle Royale, where brains give you an advantage before the shooting even starts.

• Solve to survive. Complete more words to enter the battle with more ammunition.

• Race for power-ups hidden inside valuable answers before your opponents can claim them.

• Guns first, swords last. Run out of bullets and your sword becomes your only way to survive.

• New puzzles mean new battlefields. Different crossword layouts create different walls, routes, sightlines, and fights.

• Easy to understand, hard to master. You don't need to be the best crossword solver or the best FPS player. It’s the combination that’ll win you the game!
