👇 drag a tile up here — build one crossword
Maple Scramble needs its dictionary to check your crossword.
Every day’s letters can be tapped — want to see one way it works?
Peeking ends today’s run: no leaderboard time, and your streak takes the day off. The letters come back fresh at midnight.
There were other ways too. Fresh letters at midnight — see you tomorrow 🍁
Everyone gets the same 16 letters each day. Drag them onto the board and build one connected crossword — every row and column of touching letters must be a real word.
Words that aren't words glow red — rearrange tiles as much as you like. The clock starts on your first tile and stops when all 16 are down and everything checks out. That's a TAP 🍁
Fastest taps make the monthly leaderboard. New letters every midnight (Vermont time, obviously).
A production of the BTown Brief, Burlington's favorite newsletter.
Same 16 tiles, two phones, fastest tap wins. Boards come from the Scramble archive, so today's puzzle stays unspoiled.
