10 SKILL LEVELS

The AI is designed to provide a challenging yet refreshing experience.

2 GAME MODES

Choose between the standard gameplay, where you place letters next to existing ones to form words (e.g., turning 'rabble' into 'scrabble'), and the innovative 'Tile Stacking' mode, which allows you to drop new tiles on top of old ones (e.g., 'scrabble' to 'scramble').

28 BOARD LAYOUTS

Break the monotony with 28 different board layouts. From the classic 15x15 grid to an expansive 21x21, or let the computer randomly select a layout for added variety.

10 BOARD STYLES

Personalize your gaming experience with 10 unique board styles. Choose your preferred colors to make each game visually appealing and tailored to your taste.

9 LANGUAGES

CUSTOMIZABLE DICTIONARY

Enhance your gameplay by enabling the 'Flexible Vocabulary' option, which allows you to include names or other words typically not permitted. You can also challenge the computer's word choices.

TEACHER MODE

Sharpen your skills with the teacher mode, which shows you the optimal word placement for each turn, helping you master crossword strategies.

LOST FOR WORDS?

Never be at a loss with CrossCraze's unique hint system. It finds the best word for your current rack, allowing you to decide how many hints you use per game. The system can reveal the entire word or simply guide you to the right spot.

NO MORE IMPOSSIBLE RACKS

Select from three tile allocation methods: 'Random' for an unpredictable challenge, 'Balanced' for a more consistent draw, or 'Helpful' to ensure an even distribution of letters on your rack.
