The rules fit on a napkin, and the leaderboard does the rest.
Solve
Tap a clue, fill the grid. Every puzzle is a real interlocking crossword — no word searches, no filler. Hints are there when you are genuinely stuck.
Score
Score is difficulty × speed, minus hints. Base points rise with the level, the speed bonus decays to nothing at twice par time, and hints cost more the deeper you go.
Climb
Level 12 opens when level 11 falls. Your best run on each level is the one that counts, and the sum of them is your place on the global leaderboard.
Level 1 takes about two minutes.
Level 100 has beaten everyone who has tried it so far. Start at the shallow end and find out where you stop.
