Knotwords+ is a minimal and elegant logic puzzle — with words. The rules are simple: arrange the letters in each section so every word is valid, across and down. Each puzzle may seem difficult at first — but like all my favorite newspaper puzzles, it gets easier as you progress. Each step guides you naturally towards the solution. This is the kind of game I've been trying to make my whole career — I'm amazed Jack and I discovered this design. We hope you like it.

Everyday Puzzles also leads on monetization model (free vs paid) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). Knotwords+'s advantage is iOS requirement (13.5 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Everyday Puzzles holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Everyday Puzzles has 2.8K ratings behind it against 124, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Knotwords+'s written reviews are positive against 42% of Everyday Puzzles's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Knotwords+ ships an update every 3 weeks, Everyday Puzzles every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
