Crosseights
What is Crosseights?
Crosseights is a daily word puzzle centered on 8-letter words. Each day presents a fresh challenge that tests your vocabulary and deductive reasoning. It's a quick, browser-based game designed for one puzzle per day.
How to play Crosseights
Crosseights is built around an 8-letter word, and your goal is to work out what that word is. You'll examine letter positions and use feedback from your attempts to narrow down possibilities. Pay attention to which letters are confirmed, which are present, and which are ruled out entirely.
Tips & strategy
- Start with a guess that uses common letters like vowels and frequent consonants (R, S, T, N) to gather maximum information.
- Keep a running list of confirmed letters and their positions; update it after every attempt.
- Watch for double letters — 8-letter words often contain repeated characters that are easy to overlook.
- Think about common prefixes and suffixes (like UN-, -ING, -TION) when trying to place confirmed letters.
