Creator guide

What makes a satisfying custom puzzle?

01

Use an exact rule

“Things at the beach” is broad. “Words before ball” gives players a rule they can prove.

02

Plan fair overlap

A good red herring tempts the player briefly. It should not create a second equally valid solution.

03

Keep every tile readable

Use concise words or short phrases so the 4×4 board remains comfortable on mobile.
