About Wörtsel – Crosswords
COMING SOON IN ENGLISH Wörtsel's puzzles are currently in German. An English version with its own clue catalogue is on the way, so you'll soon be able to play in English too. Wörtsel is the endlessly interlocking arrow-word puzzle app. A beginning, but no end. WÖRTSEL – A beginning, but no end: the grid keeps growing for as long as you keep solving. – Always fresh: every puzzle is generated the moment you open it. No one has solved it before you. – Milestones every 50 rows: the perfect moment to switch topics. – Three kinds of hints: reveal a letter, reveal a word, or check your answers. – 650,000 clues from a growing catalogue, curated for German-speaking players. FREE TO PLAY Wörtsel is free to use.
