Only NYT All Access or Games subscribers can create these puzzles. The tool works on both mobile and desktop browsers, as well as the NYT Games app. This flexibility lets you craft and send your puzzles from anywhere, whether you’re at home, commuting, or on holiday.

Tips for Creating Your Own Wordle Puzzles

Want to make your Wordle puzzle memorable? Start with a theme or challenge level—like holiday words or rare letter combinations. Add a hint for players if the puzzle is especially tricky. Keep the puzzle between 4 and 7 letters to fit the official format and ensure it’s playable for everyone.

Can Others Play Without a Subscription?

Yes! One of the most exciting features is that recipients don’t need a subscription to play. Simply share your unique URL, and friends or family can jump right in. This makes creating and sharing Wordle puzzles a fun, social activity perfect for holidays, parties, or just a friendly challenge.
