How it works
Pick this week's puzzles
Three new puzzles go up every Monday at 12:00 a.m. Eastern. Each one has its own page, and past weeks stay up too.
Print as many as you need
Each PDF is two pages: the puzzle, then the answers. Choose "Actual size" when you print for the biggest letters.
Hand out the right level
Amber for a relaxed, easy search, Sapphire for a bit more challenge, Diamond for your sharpest solvers. Everyone plays at their own pace.

Tips for a puzzle session
- A highlighter or a ruler helps readers keep their place in the grid.
- Solving in pairs works well: one person reads the list, the other hunts.
- Keep the answer page back until the end, or hand it to anyone who's stuck.
- Each puzzle page on the site can also be played on a tablet, with a finger.
