A games section readers come back to every day.
A crossword, a daily word game, a quiz on the week's news, a jigsaw of today's photo. Made in your own editor, in your house style, and embedded on your site, behind your paywall too if you like.
Why publishers add games
A daily habit
A puzzle is a reason to come back tomorrow. Give each one the date it opens, and next week's games are ready before the weekend.
A reason to subscribe and stay
Embed a game on a subscriber-only page and it sits behind your paywall like any other story. Keep another one free to bring new readers in.
Games only your title could make
A word game on today's headline, a jigsaw of this morning's front-page photo, a quiz on the week's news. The content is yours, so the game is too.
In your house style
Your fonts, colours and logo, with no Puzzel.org header around an embedded game.
A finish that leads somewhere
End with your own message and picture, and a link back to the story the puzzle came from.
Quick to make, every day
Type the words and the grid builds itself. The AI writes clues for bare words, or drafts a quiz from an article you paste in.
How the games get onto your site
Each of these comes with every paid plan, unless it says otherwise.
Games for the daily games page
Each one is a real activity: play it the way your players will, then copy it to your account and make it yours.
Self-paced practice
6Vocabulary crossword
Terms and definitions, laid out for you. The classic review, and answers are still there when they come back.
Theme of the week
A board full of letters, a riddle for a theme, and one word that runs from edge to edge and ties it together.
Word of the day
Five letters, six guesses, a clue from the lesson, and a result they can share without spoiling it.
Find the continents and oceans
The seven continents and five oceans on a blank world map. A name is shown, and players click where it is.
Flags of Europe
Fifteen European flags, one at a time. Players click the country each flag belongs to on a blank map of Europe.
Science fair logic puzzle
Four pupils, four projects, four time slots. Seven clues, one answer, worked out one cross at a time on the grid.
Higher stakes
2Hidden messages
4Secret-message word search
The grid has no spare letters. The cells left over spell a message, and typing it finishes the puzzle.
Quote of the week
The letters have dropped out of their columns. Put them back and a line worth remembering reads across the board.
Proverbs in pictures
Five proverbs written as a rebus. Change a letter under a picture, or say it out loud, and the saying reads back word by word.
Shaped word search
The grid is cut to the shape of a picture: a heart, a star, your logo. The words hide inside the outline.
From a picture
4Photo jigsaw
Any picture cut into pieces: organic shapes, a tray to sort them in, and pieces that stay together once they fit.
Pycto puzzle
The Pycto-style picture puzzle. Every piece of the photo is on the board, just in the wrong place. No gap, no numbers: players swap two pieces at a time until the picture is whole.
Find-it scene
A busy picture and a strip of cut-out pieces to find in it. A short freeze after a wrong click keeps guessing honest.
Your own picture with subtle changes
You bring one picture; the second is made from it, and the differences are measured for you.
Trails and escapes
1Stands and launches
2Newsletter puzzle
A Swedish-style puzzle for the back page of the staff mail. Clues sit in the grid, and the numbered cells spell the word readers send in.
Which kind are you?
No right answers, just a result about the player. Every answer moves them along one scale, and where they land is their outcome.
Business plans, sized by how many readers play
Every business plan includes embedding, your own branding, open dates and results. They differ in player sessions a month: Ambassador grows in blocks of 5,000, and a national readership is a conversation about Enterprise.
