關於此遊戲

TickWords is a video game that lets you create and play custom crosswords built directly from your own study materials. Simply drop in your digital files (PDF or TXT), and it generates revision crosswords from the key facts and concepts inside.

It also includes hundreds of pre-made crosswords covering a wide range of high-school and university subjects. The crosswords can be printed, or played as a video game. This provides students with a new tool to support their learning.

Crosswords are a relaxing way to study, but traditionally creating a high-quality crossword is both time-consuming and difficult. TickWords changes that by automating the process, it can scan your documents, extract the important terminology, and generate tailor-made crosswords in seconds.

The printable crosswords become versatile study aids you can do them during, or after, reading a chapter. It's also something you can do on a bus or train, where unpacking study materials is not practical. There is also something inherently social about it, you can ask a friend: Hey, seven down: pairing of electrons responsible for superconductivity... ends in r?, and they will just join you... to solve the puzzle.

While TickWords is great at printing crosswords, there are also advantages to doing them in the software:

• Each term can have multiple clues across three difficulty levels, so you can revisit subjects at a different difficulty setting.

• Get revision crosswords that revisit words you previously skipped, flagged, or took a long time to solve.

• Use spaced repetition crosswords to help memorize facts, just like you would with flash cards.

AI 生成內容聲明

開發者針對他們的遊戲使用 AI 生成內容方式的說明如下：

No AI was used for in-game graphics or music. This work is the product of human endeavor.

We use modern tools responsibly and provide a transparent summary of where AI was used: 1) Chatbots supported code quality and content proofreading. 2) Some sound effects were AI-assisted, mainly because it lets us build audio around visually composed animation timing, a workflow that’s otherwise quite difficult. 3) A light touch of AI was used to support marketing materials.

There is no in-game generative AI, the crossword puzzle/clue generation runs locally, without an LLM or cloud service. We understand different people draw their own lines with AI, we hope this disclaimer provides for informed decision making.
