About Letter Boxed

Your daily dose of word puzzle fun

Hi, I'm Ella Hayes, and I built Letter Boxed because I wanted a free way to play the word-chain puzzle style made popular by The New York Times, without a paywall standing in the way. My goal is simple: turn learning, thinking, and connecting words into an enjoyable daily habit.

I designed the game to strike a balance between fun and challenge. Each puzzle asks you to connect letters around a square to form clever word chains, using strategy and creativity to solve every round. The idea is to think differently, discover new words, and sharpen your problem-solving skills one puzzle at a time.

With 365 unique daily challenges in a year and an Unlimited for endless play, there's always a new way to test your mind. Whether you're solving during your morning coffee or unwinding after a long day, there's a fun, free brain teaser waiting for you.

The community that's grown around this site includes thousands of players from all over the world, casual word fans and dedicated puzzle enthusiasts chasing streaks and high scores alike. I'm proud to have built a space where creativity, curiosity, and language come together.

Letter Boxed keeps improving thanks to feedback from players like you. Every update, puzzle, and feature is something I work on to make the experience smoother, smarter, and more enjoyable. It's not just a game to me, it's a daily habit that keeps the mind active and the vocabulary growing.

Join in today and make Letter Boxed part of your daily word routine. Challenge yourself, share it with friends, and see how much fun thinking with letters can be!
