Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players who want puzzle mechanics to change substantially from one round to the next may find the repeated number-to-letter grid format limiting.

Our take on Simply Puzzles: Codewords
The sticking point is the core solving loop: every puzzle asks players to infer letter-number matches and fill a grid. Anyone expecting new mechanics or a shift in pace between puzzles may lose interest once that pattern becomes familiar.
What is Simply Puzzles: Codewords?
Solve 100 handcrafted codewords by figuring out which number corresponds to each letter, then filling in the grid to reveal the answers.
