Assocword: Word Puzzle

Match the cards. Fit every topic. Solve the grid.

Assocword is an association crossword puzzle. Every row and every column of the board is a topic, and your job is to lay out the cards so each one belongs to its topic. Cards come as words and as pictures.

A card on a crossing has to work twice: it must suit both the row and the column that meet there. One wrong guess can break two topics at once, so each placement is a small riddle.

How it works
Read the topics along the rows and columns of the grid. Pick a card, think about what it is associated with and put it where it fits. Cards on the crossings need a link to both topics, and that double match helps you narrow down the right spot.

Puzzle mechanics
• Topic lines — each row and each column of the field carries its own topic
• Word and picture cards — place every card in a cell where it matches the topic, whether it shows a word or an image
• Crossings — a card on an intersection must fit both topics at once
• 100 levels — work through the full set; after level 100, the levels repeat starting from level 20

Made for thinking in associations
The puzzle rests on one simple rule: a card has to match its topic. Crossings add logic on top, so one topic can point you to another and the grid comes together step by step. Test a guess against the topic across and the topic down before you commit to a cell.

Place a card and connect the topics.
