Common questions

Before you start

How many clues should I add?+

Ten makes a satisfying, gift-sized puzzle. Clueful supports 3–20 answers, each containing 2–18 English letters.

Why did one of my answers not fit?+

A crossword needs shared letters. Replace an answer with another word that contains letters used elsewhere, or add a few more answers.

Are my clues uploaded anywhere?+

No. This beta generates and stores the draft entirely in your browser. Clearing browser storage removes the draft.

What does it cost?+

Creating and previewing the puzzle is free. The print-ready puzzle and answer key cost $12 as a one-time purchase.

Ten memories. One table.

Make something your people
can solve together.
