## What is Çengel Bulmaca?

The newspaper crossword, rebuilt for your phone — plus two more puzzle types.

NOTE: This game is entirely in Turkish. All words and clues are Turkish, and it is meant for Turkish speakers and learners.

THREE PUZZLE TYPES

• Çengel — the Scandinavian crossword. Clues sit inside the grid; follow the arrow and work through the intersections.
• Petek — a honeycomb. Each word wraps around a clue hexagon, clockwise or counter-clockwise, and neighbouring rings share cells.
• Sarmal — a single spiral path. Words run end to end from the outer edge toward the centre.

FEATURES

• 1,215 offline puzzles (405 of each type)
• Thousands of distinct clues drawn from a large Turkish word pool
• 9 categories: Sports, History, Literature, Science, Geography, Cinema, Music, Art, General Knowledge
• Three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, Hard
• Full Turkish keyboard - Ç, Ğ, İ, I, Ö, Ş, Ü all where they belong
• Letter and word hints when you are stuck (they cost points)
• Each type keeps its own unfinished game
• Per-type statistics: best score, fastest time, puzzles completed
• Game Center leaderboards and achievements
• Share your end-of-game summary with friends
• Pinch to zoom and pan - comfortable on small screens
• VoiceOver support
• Dark and light themes
• Works offline - no internet required

HOW IT WORKS

In Çengel the dark boxes hold the clues and the arrow tells you which way the answer runs. In Petek the clue sits at the centre of a hexagon and the answer fills the six cells around it. In Sarmal the words follow one another along the spiral.

In all three, tapping a box shows the full clue at the top of the screen. Hints are there when you need them, but they cost points - the fewer you use, the better your score.

SCORING

Each word scores by its clue difficulty and its length. Solving words back to back builds a streak bonus. Finishing quickly earns a time bonus. Your total carries you through six ranks, from Çaylak (Rookie) to Efsane (Legend).


## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.0.2 — 2026-09-21

Fixed: the back arrow did nothing while a puzzle was open, leaving the only way out a swipe from the edge.
