GENERAL INFORMATION
Puzzler can print three different puzzles from the same list of words:
a crossword, a wordsearch, and a wordscramble. Since YOU supply the words
and clues you can match your puzzles to each occasion. You can have as few
or as many (up to 50) words as you like. You can choose any topic or no
topic at all. And, you can make the words and clues as easy or as difficult
as desired. Best of all, once you've entered the words and clues, all that's
left for you to do is choose the puzzle options. Puzzler does the rest of
the work automatically--and quickly!
Crosswords
Puzzler creates the simple style of crosswords (as found in children's
activity books). This type of crossword is wonderful for class activities,
rainy days, newsletters, reunions, parties, and studying. Puzzler numbers
the boxes for you, and sorts and prints the clues in across and down
columns. Puzzler can create many different crossword patterns from the same
list of words, and you can print only the ones you like best. You can even
choose how big to make the printed boxes. By the way, crossword creation is
FAST, so don't blink. If you have more than 30 words in your list, Puzzler
may not immediately be able to use all of them but if you let it keep trying,
you can often get over 40 words in one crossword!
Wordsearch
You choose the size of the wordsearch, and whether diagonal and backwards
words are allowed. When printing, you can choose whether words, clues,
words and clues, or nothing should be printed. You decide how much to aid
(or inhibit) the searchers!
Wordscramble
A wordscramble is a list of words, with the letters in each word jumbled up.
Puzzler's wordscramble can print the clues as hints, or print the scrambled
words all by themselves.
