Puzzle Maker Pro – Secret Word Grid – Product Information

Description

Create several different types of engaging and fun acrostic crossword puzzles with Puzzle Maker Pro – Acrostic Grid.

Whether you’re a starting or experienced puzzle creator or puzzle book publisher, this module will create puzzles that are attractive and engaging.

With Acrostic Grid you can use a secret word or phrase that is printed in a separate area. Solving the secret would be the goal of the puzzle.

Alternatively you can create puzzles without a secret words. In that case the letter hints serve as additional clues to solve the puzzle.

Just like other Crossword Variations, you can print the clues as regular descriptions, or choose word fill or word scramble variations.

Although Acrostic Grid resembles our Acrostic Column puzzle, it’s quite a different puzzle, with many different layout options, flexibly setting the minimum or maximum number of words, sorting the rows by length or in a diamond pattern. (Acrostic Column has more restrictions because the single column contains the secret word).

Target your audience, event, educational topics or trend by using your own custom word lists and use the built-in (English) dictionary to find clues for your words, if needed.

Create acrostic puzzles with or without a secret word or phrase, using additional hints for each letter.

Other options:

  • Styling and Personalization: Make your mark with fully customizable styling options. Puzzle Maker Pro lets you infuse your brand or personal style into every puzzle, ensuring that they are as aesthetically pleasing as they are intellectually stimulating.
  • Dynamic Clue Editing: Fine-tune your puzzles with dynamic clue editing. Provide unique descriptions for each word to keep your puzzles fresh and your users intrigued. With the ability to edit clues before or after creation, you maintain complete creative control.
  • AI-Integrated Dictionary: Leverage the integrated AI-based dictionary to add automatic clues and hints to your words. This feature simplifies your workflow and enhances the puzzle-solving experience with smart and relevant clues.
  • Time-Saving Enhancements: For the ultimate in efficiency, opt for the Time Saver add-on. Expand your design options, enjoy a multitude of page layouts, and experiment with blending multiple word lists for even richer content.
  • Versatile Publishing Options: With Puzzle Maker Pro, you’re equipped to publish directly to KDP, create printables for Etsy, or design full-page puzzles for personal or commercial use. Your puzzle interiors will stand out, whether they’re part of a print-on-demand offering or digital downloads.
  • (Social Media) image output, complete with title, description and watermark
  • Print the clues as part of the puzzle image or save as a separate txt file.

For Fun, Education, and Engagement: This isn’t just a tool for creators—it’s for anyone with a love for puzzles. Craft fun experiences for your kids, family, or students. Puzzle Maker Pro – Acrostic Grid is your partner in bringing joy and learning to life through the power of puzzles.

Ease of Use

There are several ways to create Acrostic puzzles:

You can start with the themed word lists you already use for Word Search puzzles, and then add clues after generating puzzles.

If you have word lists that include clues, you can include these as well.

One of the challenging aspect of crossword puzzles is writing the clues. With Puzzle Maker Pro – Acrostic Grid you get an integrated Clue Editor and an integrated AI-based English Dictionary. After generating the puzzles, you can manually edit the clues, or use the dictionary to automatic complement all the clues, and optionally verify them.

You can also provide your own dictionary (word:clue list) and build a custom dictionary while you create puzzles.
