Your list stays on this device
Generation, play, regeneration, and answer highlighting happen in this browser. Puzzled does not submit the words to a server, save a gallery, create a public result URL, or attach the puzzle to an account.
Print behavior
Puzzle and answer key stay separate
Choose standard or large print, then print the clean puzzle or the highlighted answer view. Browser print settings control paper size and orientation; the layout is designed for common Letter and A4 pages and remains legible in grayscale.
