Hi everyone. I spent the last year making Puzzle Express.

Play and discover puzzles as if you were scrolling reels: play if you want or swipe up to skip.

Made this as a healthier alternative to doomscrolling and a great, new way to discover puzzles you might love.

If you don't fancy endless scrolling, try to finish the daily missions or play your favorite puzzle in the arcade.

Do you worry that the TikTok style feed could eventually optimize for short-term engagement rather than good puzzles?

Nice idea and the content is then as short or long form as you are good at puzzles!

No. The puzzles are not shrunken down in any way. The goal of the feed is for you to discover puzzles you'll love, not farm engagement.
