Online Codeword Puzzle

    If you love word puzzles and logic games, Codeword Online is the perfect challenge for you! This digital version of the classic codeword puzzle—also known as a cipher crossword—tests your deductive skills and vocabulary.

    How to Play:
    In a codeword puzzle, every letter of the alphabet is replaced by a number, and the goal is to decode the grid by figuring out which number corresponds to which letter. Unlike a standard crossword, there are no clues—just a few given letters to get you started. By using logic, word patterns, and trial and error, players gradually reveal the hidden words and complete the puzzle.

    How to Play Codeword

    Filling in the Grid:

    Select a cell in the puzzle grid.
    Choose a letter from the on-screen keyboard to fill in the cell.
    Continue filling in the grid until every cell contains a letter.

    Auto-Fill with the On-Screen Keyboard

    If no cell is selected in the grid and you choose a letter from the on-screen keyboard, that letter will be placed in a random empty cell.
    If you click the same letter again, it will be placed in another empty cell in the grid.

    Erasing a Letter:

    If you want to erase a letter, select the cell you wish to change.
    Then, click the same letter on the keyboard panel to remove it.

    Using a Hint:

    To get a hint, select a cell in the grid.
    Click the ‘Hint’ button, and the correct letter will automatically fill in that cell.
