Trailer
Love crosswords? Try codewords — the addictive puzzle where every letter is hidden behind a number code. No clues, no hints, just pure logic and word knowledge.
Each letter A-Z is replaced by a number 1-26. The same number always represents the same letter. Your job: crack the code and reveal the full grid of words.

HOW TO PLAY
A few starter letters are given to get you going. Look for patterns — common letters appear frequently, rare letters like Q and Z only once or twice. Double letters, word endings, and short words are all valuable clues.
