About Knotwords


Knotwords is a minimal and elegant logic puzzle — with words.

The rules are simple: arrange the letters in each section so every word is valid, across and down.

Each puzzle may seem difficult at first — but like all my favorite newspaper puzzles, it gets easier as you progress. Each step guides you naturally towards the solution.

This is the kind of game I've been trying to make my whole career — I'm amazed Jack and I discovered this design. We hope you like it.

This is a fun little word game of a type I have not seen before.

Knotwords is an excellent puzzle game. I find a good way to describe the game is to think of it as Sudoku with letters instead of numbers. You may think you entered the correct letters in a series of the game's boxes; however, if the word you put together is incorrect, the game will mark your entry as incorrect. For me, Knotwords is a pleasant diversion. I highly recommend this game.

if you're a real wordle-type weirdo, this game's gonna be yr jam. be ye prepared to play this every day for the next year or so if you're looking to 100% it. p.s. it does work on steam deck, but i'd *strongly* recommend running it with bluetooth mouse/keyboard peripherals as the gamepad is a bit clunky to say the least.

Light, fun, deceptively tricky word game. Plus, the Victory Bunny is adorable. It's so psyched! Highly recommended.

Fun game, maddeningly unhelpful automatic cursor placement
