AVCX is the premier indie puzzle platform in the U.S., offering themed and themeless crosswords, a cryptic, a trivia game, and midi-sized puzzles. The "indie" label is meaningful here — we mentor, we're transparent, and we respond directly to our solvers. We never sell or give your information to anybody.
And we'd love to have you sign up for an annual membership. Every dollar we get goes to the folks who make the puzzles — many of whom are familiar names to you from XWord Info. Gift options are available, too!
Official XWord Info Merch!
The new XWord Info store has some quality products you absolutely need. Well, perhaps not need, but you can support this website and help spread the word by purchasing a mug, a t-shirt, or an excellent hoodie.
For added incentive, if you post a photo of yourself on social media wearing branded clothes, I'll add two months to your XWord Info account for free. Post of photo of you wearing it at a crossword puzzle tournament, and you get four added months.
If you're a constructor, let me know if you'd like a product with your own "baseball card" or an image of your favorite grid. I take custom orders.
I'm Squeezy
Try Jeff Chen's latest word game. Every day there's a new challenge at three levels: Easy, Peasy, and Squeezy. Share your results. Spread the word.
