Solvers

Word games, logic puzzles, board games, and algorithm-driven solvers.

Back to Home

Solvers cover two different kinds of puzzle: daily word games (Wordle, Connections, Strands-style puzzles) where people are stuck partway through and want a nudge rather than the full answer, and classic logic puzzles (Sudoku, word search, crossword) that are closer to a full-solve tool. The two audiences behave differently — daily-puzzle visitors tend to arrive once a day at a predictable time, while Sudoku and crossword visitors are more likely to paste in one specific stuck puzzle and want it solved completely.

A word-game solver works by filtering a dictionary against the constraints you enter — known letters, wrong positions, excluded letters — narrowing thousands of possible words down to a short, rankable list. It's the same elimination process a sharp player does by hand, just exhaustive rather than intuitive.

None of these are built to game a leaderboard or a competitive mode — they're aimed at the much more common case of being stuck on a single daily puzzle and wanting either a hint or the full solution, your choice. Board-game solvers like Tic-Tac-Toe or Minesweeper work differently: instead of filtering a word list, they run constraint propagation or search over the actual game state you enter.
