Quintext is a free daily word puzzle. Each level is a 5x5 grid starting with some letters filled in. Your goal: complete the grid so all rows and columns make valid 5-letter words, crossword style. The words will be the same horizontally and vertically. Each puzzle has a unique solution. While playing, you see real-time feedback about which rows and columns have valid words or parts of words. If you get stuck, tap the buttons to reveal additional letters or show all dictionary words which fit in the current row or column. In addition to the free daily puzzles, a one-time in-app purchase unlocks a library of over 50k additional puzzles with a wide range of difficulty settings.
