Types of Word Puzzles

There are many different types of word puzzles, including Crosswords, Word Searches, Cryptogram and Word Scrambles.

  • Crosswords are a type of puzzle in which players must find a list of words in a grid. The words may be hidden in any direction, including backward and diagonally.
  • Word Searches are puzzles in which players must find all of the words in a list that are hidden inside a grid.
  • Word Scrambles involve putting a list of words into a random order. Players have to find the correct word.
  • Cryptograms consist of a short piece of encrypted text where the cipher is used to encrypt the text.

All of these puzzles can be solved by using tips that help players look for patterns. For example, repeating letters can be a clue that two words are near each other on the grid.

Word puzzles are great fun to play at home or in school with paper and pencil, but there are also lots of word puzzles online.
