What this maker can do

An arrowword from your own words

Type answers and clues — the generator lays out the grid and puts every clue in a cell with an arrow, right there in the preview.

Hidden solution

Hide a secret word inside the grid. Players collect its letters by solving the words around it — a puzzle within the puzzle, or a way to pick prize winners.

Answer key

Flip the answers on while you build to check the grid, off to see the puzzle the way players will.

Clues with pictures

Premium

Put a picture in the clue cell instead of words — players work out the answer from what they see.

Play in teams

Premium

Split the class into teams. Every correct answer syncs live to all teammates, and you watch each team's progress in real time.

Your colors and fonts

Premium

Match the puzzle to your brand or classroom — grid colors, fonts and backgrounds are all yours to change.
