If other puzzle games like Wordle have gone stale for you, Knotwords Plus on Apple Arcade is out now and ready to make you scratch your head in confusion. If you subscribe to Apple Arcade ($7, £7 or AU$10 a month), you can play this game at no additional charge, and without ads or in-app purchases.
Knotwords Plus was developed by Zach Gage, an independent game developer who has made other puzzle games, like SpellTower Plus and Flipflop Solitaire Plus.
This isn’t your average crossword puzzle.
Knotwords Plus is what you’d get if crossword puzzles and sudoku had a baby. The game gives you a grid that has been divided into Tetris-like sections by dotted lines. There are letters in each section and you have to arrange those letters to make words that span the entire grid.
