Lexicon, the word connection game

Crossing the Lexicon is a free word puzzle you can play online in any browser. Each board has laurel squares on it. Spell words across and down, crossword style, so that your words connect every laurel. Every run of letters has to be a real word, and all your tiles have to join up.

Use as few tiles as you can. Reach par for three stars, beat it for the crown, and if you get stuck, Hint lays down a route that always works.

A new Lexicon daily puzzle every day

Like Wordle, there is one daily board, the same for everyone, with a streak to keep going. Share your result without spoiling it: friends see the shape of your words first, then choose whether to look.

500 levels, in five languages

Alongside the daily there are 500 levels that start small and grow into bigger boards with stone squares to route around. Play in English, French, German, Spanish or Danish, each with its own words and levels.

Is Lexicon free?
Yes. There are no ads and no account to make. It plays in the browser, and the Android app also works offline.
How is it different from Scrabble or Words With Friends?
There is no opponent and no letter scores. The puzzle is the board itself: find the shortest chain of crossing words that links the laurels.
Is this the Lexicon card game?
No. Lexicon was a classic card game for making words. Crossing the Lexicon is a separate puzzle game with the same love of words.
