What is Crossclimb?
Crossclimb is a daily word-and-trivia ladder from LinkedIn. You use word knowledge to unlock a trivia ladder and complete hidden clues. Each puzzle presents a defined problem you solve by following the ladder's structure.
How to play Crossclimb
- Read the clues provided for the ladder.
- Fill in the hidden entries by solving each clue.
- Use the ladder's order to connect answers logically from one rung to the next.
- Complete the entire ladder to finish the puzzle.
Reading your result
LinkedIn displays your completion time and the sequence of your word ladder. When you solve without hints, reveals, or auto-placement—and keep auto-check off—the result card shows "Perfect." Scores may vary slightly by device.
Strategy for a cleaner solve
Start with the clue you know best. That answer locks its position in the ladder and narrows down where neighboring entries can fit. The result rewards a coherent sequence, not scattered individual answers.
If you want the Perfect badge, skip hints, reveals, and auto-placement. Each assist removes that designation from the final card.
Daily format
LinkedIn publishes Crossclimb as part of its Games hub, a collection of thinking puzzles released once per day. The puzzle offers a short, structured challenge for players who prefer a clear task before work or between other activities.
