About Knotwords

Knotwords is a minimal and elegant logic puzzle — with words.

The rules are simple: arrange the letters in each section so every word is valid, across and down.

Each puzzle may seem difficult at first — but like all my favorite newspaper puzzles, it gets easier as you progress. Each step guides you naturally towards the solution.

This is the kind of game I've been trying to make my whole career — I'm amazed Jack and I discovered this design. We hope you like it.

Well done game, difficult but fair. Solid and simple UI.

Very cool take on word games, that gets surprisingly challenging, and instantly became one of my daily time-spenders. The free games are all played through quite quickly (and then there's only one free puzzle a day), but if you're into this kind of games, I think it's well worth paying for the full version.

Not big on mobile games usually but the good folks at Giant Bomb played it and I'm hooked!
