Show HN: Lettered – a daily phrase puzzle game

https://lettered.io
1•ajhenrydev•1h ago
Hey all!

I'm a big fan of daily puzzles and came up with my own game called Lettered. Imagine you took a wheel of fortune phrase and made it solvable via tetris pieces.

I love making things that people enjoy using and feels magical to interact with. The age of ai has been incredible to develop quick games like these but I still think there needs to be a human touch to it. I curate all the puzzles myself and found that agents still get the nitty gritty details of optimizing touch events to be lacking. It's been live for about 6 months now and has been played more times than I ever imagined with over 100k games played in 1M moves by 22k people from all over the world!

Figured I'd share it here too in case anyone else is a lover of daily puzzle games :)

Lmk if you think of any improvements you want to see or if you want to curate a puzzle yourself! (The puzzle generation algorithm is also a bit neat in case anyone is interested)
