4. Export puzzles as images

You can now export puzzles as JPEG or PNG files from the publish page, making it easier to use them in puzzle books or other printed formats.

5. Publish to Discord

You can now publish puzzles directly to Discord, making it easier to share games with your community where they already are. Learn more here.

What's new?

1. Test with PuzzleMe Sherlock

We've developed PuzzleMe Sherlock, a free tool that helps you check and test the integration of your puzzles. Download PuzzleMe Sherlock from the Chrome Web Store.

2. Make the interface your own

You can edit select messages seen by solvers directly from your Series Settings. This is a simple way to bring your brand voice into the player. Learn more here.

Give individual puzzles their own look and feel, not just the entire series. Learn how to brand individual puzzles here.

4. Animation on puzzle completion

Throw a little confetti when solvers finish! Choose up to three completion animations in the Game settings.

5. Get curated puzzle packs

We've curated collections of puzzle content for different formats you can choose from. To explore the right content for your needs, write to us and we'll help you get started.

Enhancements

1. Accessibility improvements

We've enhanced text color contrast in Crossword, Word Flower, Sudoku, and Word Search puzzles to boost readability and meet WCAG 2 AA standards for minimum contrast ratios.

2. Distribute directly to Shopify

Publish puzzles to your Shopify store, expanding how and where you share content.

3. Smarter wordlists in Word Flower

Give your Word Flower puzzles a personal touch with a custom dictionary. Share your word list with us, and we'll set it up for you. Write to us to learn more.

4. Variety puzzles your way!

Expert constructors can now import Spiral, Decipher, and Rows Garden puzzles independently, thanks to built-in setup in PuzzleMe. You can also edit and preview them in the CMS.


19 June 2025

What's new?

1. Smarter and safer logins

We've rolled out a new email-based login system with 2FA to enhance the security of your account. If you haven't already, you can set up your secure login and manage users directly from your Dashboard.

2. Now publish to Bluesky, WhatsApp and more

Introducing more ways to share your puzzles – Bluesky, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Medium, Notion, Slack, and Wix! Learn more.

3. Get puzzle info via our new Puzzles API

Our new Puzzles API lets you fetch puzzle-level details such as title, author, and publication time. If you're interested in trying the beta, please reach out to us.

Enhancements

1. Delete series more efficiently

We've made series deletion more efficient – you no longer need to clear puzzles one by one and can now delete a series in a single step. That said, this action will remove all puzzles and cannot be undone, so we urge caution. Note that your puzzle analytics will still reflect deleted puzzles.

2. Now upload custom print PDFs

You can now choose to upload your own PDFs for printing, both blank and with solutions. When solvers click on "Print", they can download the version you've uploaded instead of the automatically generated PDF. Use your design, format, or layout to align with your style and branding.


13 May 2025

What's new?

1. Rewarded Ads

PuzzleMe now has the ability to use rewarded ads within embedded games. These ads can be invoked when a player wants to get help while playing a puzzle, such as by checking if the cells are correct.

2. Slack Integration

With our Slack app, you can share the puzzles you create, conduct contests, and display leaderboards for the top solvers right from within your Slack workspace. To try the app, go to the Publish page for a puzzle in your PuzzleMe account and choose the "Slack (Beta)" option. You can also refer to our documentation for help.

Enhancements

1. Advanced AI Instructions

You can now guide PuzzleMe AI by giving it specific instructions while creating a puzzle. You can use this powerful feature to create custom content that your audience will enjoy. As always, like with any AI product, please ensure you proofread and check the accuracy of the content.

2. Simplified WordPress Embeds

You can use our WordPress plugin to embed puzzles on your WordPress sites with just a simple shortcode. Check out our documentation for more details.

3. Better Vertical Quiz Design

You now have the option of choosing a vertical layout for the quiz. It has a neat look, is user-friendly, and the experience is great on mobile devices. So give it a try!

4. Rename Series

If you ever wish to change the display name of a series, you can now do so directly from within the Dashboard using the 'Rename' button.
