Play Anagram Crossword Puzzles

Most crossword puzzle types require you to either find a synonym for a word (quick), have in your possession a certain piece of information (general knowledge / themed) or to crack a tricky, devious clue (cryptic).

With an anagram crossword however, the answer is always staring you in the face - you just have to unscramble the letters to find it out! That's because, as the name suggests, this puzzle type simply requires you to rearrange the letters that are given in order to find a valid word that fits in the grid.

Often there will be more than one valid word that can be made, and in that instance you will need to work out the answers to some other clues where there is only one possible answer, and place that in the grid in order to reduce the options and therefore find the solution to the puzzle.

If you like crosswords but also like a change from the standard types, then these puzzles could be for you: or of course if you enjoy cracking anagrams and like puzzles such as wordwheels or the sorts of puzzles that you see on Countdown, then you are also sure to enjoy tackling anagram crossword puzzles!
