How to play

Crack the code: every letter has been swapped for a number, and the same number always means the same letter across the whole board.

  1. Tap a square to select its number, then type or tap a letter. Every square with that number fills at once.
  2. There are no clues. Work from the 3 letters you are given, the shapes of the words, and the crossings.
  3. All 26 letters appear, each exactly once in the key, so the ones you have ruled out narrow the rest.
  4. Press Check if you want the board audited. You have 3.
The knack: The key is one letter to one number with nothing left over, so a letter you have already spent is as much information as a square you have filled.

Each Check costs 3 points, so a clean solve is 10 out of 10.

About Glyph

Glyph is a free daily codeword from Mind Loft, the crossword with no clues at all. Every letter in the grid has been replaced by a number from 1 to 26, the same number standing for the same letter everywhere, and your job is to work out the whole alphabet from two or three given letters.

You solve it the way you would crack a cipher, except the constraint is the grid itself. A one-letter gap between two blocks, a number that keeps landing at the end of words, a three-letter shape with a repeated outer number: each one narrows the field, and every letter you commit propagates across the entire board. All 26 letters appear in every key, so the ones you have ruled out tell you as much as the ones you have found.

Every board is machine-verified to use only common dictionary words and to have exactly one consistent solution, so it is always crackable by deduction and never by guesswork. A new grid drops every day at midnight Eastern, and Sundays step up to a 17×17 Edition. No app, no signup, play free in your browser, keep a streak, and race the daily leaderboard.
