Frequently Asked Questions
What's the ideal number of words?
For a 15x15 grid, 10-15 words works well. Too many words can make the puzzle too difficult, while too few makes it too easy.
Can words be diagonal?
Currently, words are placed horizontally and vertically only, which is appropriate for elementary and middle school students.
