How it works
1. Add your clues
Type each clue and its answer, like Capital of France | PARIS, or paste a whole list at once. The puzzle builds as you type. No account needed.
2. Hide a message (optional)
Enter a secret word or phrase. Its letters are marked in the grid, and solvers spell it out as they answer the clues.
3. Change the layout
Not happy with the grid? Pick another of the six layout algorithms. The same clues always give the same grid.
4. Make it look good (optional)
Choose a template for artwork and a title, or add your own images. Drag and resize anything, or press Auto Position to arrange the page in one click.
5. Print or download
Print it as it appears on screen, or download it as a PNG, JPEG or WEBP image.
