Welcome to the CW4SP Scrabble words puzzles!

Hello Players,

Thanks for visiting, here is some information about CW4SP:

Inspiration: Daily I work a paper crossword puzzle. And I recently installed an electronic version of a popular crossword boardgame on my e-reader which I tend to play daily. On the e-crossword game I have been playing against the computer. Admittedly the computer has access to a larger set of valid game vocabulary words than my brain holds. Seeing some of the neat plays it was making, I realized to improve my play I needed a stronger game vocabulary.

Going back and forth between playing the boardgame and the paper-based puzzles, it struck me that I could combine the two! That was the inspiration for the games on this web site.

Purpose: I want to present puzzles that expand your valid boardgame vocabulary. In fact, only words from the NASPA Word List 2023 are used in CW4SP puzzles.

Notices / Guiding Concepts:

1 – Lexicon: NASPA Word List 2023 Edition © NASPA 2023. The copy included in this app is licensed for personal use. You may not use it for any commercial purposes.

2 -I mostly use clues derived from dictionary definitions. On some puzzles, where the words can be very similar in meaning, I include hints or mnemonic devices as an assist. In the American Style Puzzles the clues can be more like those you would find in a newspaper puzzle.

Player Contributed Puzzles: If you play a really good or interesting game and would like it immortalized on this site, contact me through the application.

ENJOY!
