You a player? New puzzles and games are now available on AL.com

Like puzzles and games? AL.com has overhauled the Puzzles & Games section we make available to our readers at al.com/puzzles/.

We now feature six crowd-pleasing brainteasers. Three are free – all readers can enjoy these seven days a week.

  • Crossword. Still our most popular puzzle by a fair margin.
  • Sudoku. We’ve got three levels — Easy, Medium and Hard.
  • Word Flower. Test your knowledge of words and their spellings.

Three of the new puzzles are exclusively for digital subscribers:

  • Mini-crosswords: This is a quick brain-waker.
  • Word Search: A classic hidden-words grid.
  • WordroW: A variation on the Wordle phenom.

The games are easy to play on your computer, smartphone or tablet, and you can invite a friend to play using the little head and shoulders icon on the top bar of any puzzle.

And if you’re as good at puzzles as we think you might be, there’s an easy way to share your results with friends via social media.

There’s a two-week archive for all games, so you can catch-up if you miss a day. Choose “All Games” under the little menu in the upper-left corner of any puzzle.

If you already like and play our old puzzles and games, they haven’t gone away. You’ll see links to all of them at the bottom of the new puzzles page. All those games remain free to everyone to play.
