Piñones: Bite-Sized Crosswords with a Twist
app.pinones.io
More than just clues and answers. Every solved Piñones crossword reveals letters for a final, hidden phrase. It's a crossword, an anagram, and a riddle, all in one.

Hey all! I’ve recently put my little word puzzles called Piñones up on a website and I post new puzzles on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (increasing in difficulty through the week). The site is definitely scrappy, and best viewed on desktop, but I’m still very excited.

It doesn’t have a good onboarding flow at the moment so the instructions are:

  1. Use the clues to solve the grid. The direction of the words is determined by the placement of the numbers around the grid (some words are backwards).

  2. After you solve the grid, click the tab on the bottom to swap over to the anagram solve portion of the puzzle. All the letters in the solved grid are used to solve a final anagram, and the title is a clue to the answer.

Hope you enjoy, and, if permitted, I’ll post my puzzles here every Monday/Wednesday/Friday :)

Cheers!

    Hey Jefe! Yes that’s a really odd one. On puzzles where there is only one long word it, doesn’t seem to be an issue, only when a second word is there! I’ve marked it high priority for a fix so hopefully won’t be a problem in future puzzles. Nicely done on the solve!!
