Letter Puzzle Hub exists because of a specific frustration we shared: the best version of Letter Boxed lived behind a subscription paywall, and the free alternatives were either poorly designed, unreliable on mobile, or stuffed with ads that made the game actively unpleasant to play.
We wanted something we would actually choose to use every single day. Something that loaded fast, worked perfectly on any device, had puzzles that respected our intelligence, and cost nothing. When we could not find it, we built it.
We are a small, independent team with a focused obsession: word puzzles done well. Between us, we have played Letter Boxed, Wordle, Spelling Bee, the NYT Crossword, Connections, Strands, and roughly forty others. We know the difference between a puzzle game built with genuine craft and one that is just a content vehicle dressed up as a game. Letter Puzzle Hub is built to be the former.
We are not a media company, a content farm, or an affiliate site. Every puzzle that goes live has been tested by a human before it reaches you. If it does not have a clean, satisfying solution, it does not publish.
Each daily Letter Boxed puzzle on this site is designed around a theme and tested for at least one elegant par solution — ideally one that can be solved in two or three words by an experienced player while still being approachable at four to six words for everyone else.
We rate every puzzle before publishing. Our Easy, Medium, and Hard labels reflect real playtesting by the team, not an algorithm. A Hard puzzle on this site is genuinely hard — not mislabeled to manage expectations downward.
Letter Puzzle Hub is an independent website and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to The New York Times Company in any way. The Letter Boxed game format — twelve letters on a four-sided square, same-side rule, word chaining — is a puzzle mechanic, not proprietary to the NYT. Our daily puzzles are original content created entirely by the Letter Puzzle Hub team.
References to “NYT Letter Boxed” or “New York Times Letter Boxed” anywhere on this site are made for informational comparison purposes only and do not imply any association or approval by The New York Times.
