A cryptic title. A few scattered letters. Can you fill in the rest? You’ll be pulling your hair out one minute and celebrating when the answer finally clicks! Letter Tangle™ is a challenging, ad-free word puzzle game with handcrafted puzzles you can solve at your own pace. HOW IT WORKS Every puzzle has a theme to uncover. Use the title and the letters already on the board to figure out the answers. But the words aren’t independent. When neighboring answers have letters in common, those letters are connected by a line. Solve one word and you might reveal the letter you need to crack another. Sometimes the theme clicks right away. Sometimes one answer is all it takes for the whole puzzle to fall into place. FEATURES • Hundreds of handcrafted levels • A new Daily Mini each day • Hints when you get stuck • No timers — solve at your own pace • Play offline • No ads at all If you enjoy crosswords, word association, or logic puzzles, Letter Tangle offers a new kind of challenge.
