What is Thusword?

Thusword is a daily crossword with an interactive reveal system. You begin with only two clues; each correct answer unlocks new connected clues so the grid expands as you solve.

How to play Thusword

  1. Start with the two initial clues provided.
  2. Light green squares mark the word you are currently solving; the yellow square shows your cursor.
  3. Enter the correct answer for a clue. The word turns green and any new clues that share its letters are revealed.
  4. Continue solving the newly available clues.
  5. Reveal and solve every clue to complete the puzzle.

Progressive reveal

Only clues linked to already-solved letters become available. The process mirrors building outward from known entries rather than scanning a full open grid at the start.

Additional options

A co-operative mode called A2D lets two players share a link and work on the same daily puzzle together. One player can solve only Across clues; the other can solve only Down clues.
