About Us
Letter Boxed is a free, browser-based word puzzle inspired by the daily letter-connecting game popularized by The New York Times. We built this site for one simple reason: word puzzle fans shouldn’t have to hit a paywall to enjoy a few minutes of vocabulary fun.
What makes us different
Unlike most puzzle sites that recycle the same handful of boards, our puzzle engine generates a fresh, guaranteed-solvable layout every single time you press “New Puzzle.” Every board is checked against a real dictionary before it’s shown to you, so you’ll never get stuck on a combination that has no solution.
Here’s what you get, completely free:
- Unlimited puzzles — generated on the spot, never the same twice
- Three difficulty levels — Easy, Medium, and Hard, so beginners and experts both have a home here
- Hints when you’re stuck — three progressive hints per puzzle, so you’re never truly lost
- Stats that stay with you — track your win rate, streaks, and best scores right in your browser
- No account, no subscription, no paywall — ever
Why we made this
We’re a small team of puzzle enthusiasts who noticed that the official version of this game now sits behind a subscription. We wanted a version that’s genuinely free, works well on mobile, and respects your time — no ads interrupting your thinking, no forced sign-ups, no nagging.
Our promise
We’ll keep improving this game based on player feedback, and we’ll always keep the core puzzle free to play. If you have ideas, spot a bug, or just want to say hello, visit our Contact Us page — we read every message.
