Tips for a good puzzle
Words between 4 and 10 letters work best. Very short words are easy to stumble on by accident, and very long ones may not fit on the Easy grid. If the maker cannot place a word, it tells you which one, so you can shorten it or switch to a bigger level. Everything happens in your browser, so your word list is never uploaded or stored.
