How it works

Order first, then fill out a short trivia form about the person(s) the puzzle is for. We handle the rest — clues, grid and digital delivery.

1

Place your order

Choose a style, then you’ll get a private link to the trivia form.

2

Fill out the trivia

Favourite movies, pets’ names, inside jokes, places, dates — whatever makes the story personal.

3

We build your puzzle

We pull potential answers from your form, do our best to fit as many as possible into the grid (aiming for 10+ on the standard package), and write fun, not-too-challenging custom clues.

You’ll also get some non-personal filler clues — that’s how a crossword grid connects. Want more of your story in the puzzle? Choose the 20+ or 30+ package.

What does “personalized” actually mean?

You share real details on the trivia form. We turn the strongest ones into themed answers and custom clues — not a generic template. Standard packages start at 15×15 with at least 10 personalized answers.

What you might send

“We met in Lisbon in 2019. Our first trip was to Rome. Alex proposed in Kyoto. Our golden retriever is called Milo. Favourite show: The Office.”

How it can become clues

  • LISBON Where their story began
  • ROME Destination of their first adventure
  • KYOTO The city where somebody finally asked the question
  • MILO The four-legged member of the family
  • THEOFFICE Name of your favourite TV show

…plus a few ordinary crossword answers so the grid links together. You receive a digital PDF and answer key ready to print.
