I made this game for my children to play, as they are heavily into Wordle, and I thought they'd also like something maths based! Every puzzle is solvable and has at least one solution (usually more). There is a kids mode in the settings, plus a hard mode for extra difficulty.

When you discover shorter words, they automatically fill into longer ones—like a crossword—which turns out to be really useful for languages like German.
