Release notes,
in plain text.

Highlights

• The top bar now links to All games and Request a game on wider screens, and has a menu on phones and tablets with every category, Surprise me and Request a game
• The top bar's button now drops you into a random game, instead of scrolling to the list the main button already scrolls to
• The home page has one-click links to each kind of game right under the main buttons
• Today's puzzle, trending games, the most played, the newest and your picks now share one strip at the top of the home page, so the full game list starts much sooner
• Request a game is now in search: it shows up when you open search, and when a search only finds near misses you can ask for that game in one click
• The home page, the full games list and each category page offer a link to request a game
• Categories now go by the same names everywhere, like Word games and Logic puzzles

Fixes

• The full games list and the category pages now open on their heading, with the ad placed under the introduction instead of above it
• Removed the thin loading bar along the top of the page when moving between pages

Highlights

• Every game's end screen now has a share button that sends the game's link along with your result
• Word Groups shares a grid of coloured squares showing how your guesses went, without giving away a single word
• Queen Zones and Mini Crossword share your time and how many hints or reveals you used
• Links to a game now preview with a wide card showing the game's art, name and one-line description, so they look right in chats and on social networks

Highlights

• Adds a strategy guide to every game page, below the questions: openings, core techniques, a worked example on the real board, common mistakes and how to practise
• Game addresses now match game names, so Word Guess lives at /games/word-guess and Four in a Row at /games/four-in-a-row. Old links redirect, and your progress, recent games and popularity counts carry over

Fixes

• Corrects the difficulty details in the Unblock, Hex and Bubble Shooter questions to match how the games actually play
• The Quad Words keyboard answer now describes the four-corner key colours, and Theme Words names the spangram's colour consistently
• Arrows Escape no longer calls its generated boards hand-crafted

Fixes

• The contact email across the site is now [email protected]

Fixes

• The about page no longer says the site is already paid for by ads — ads aren't live yet, so for now the site is paid for out of pocket

Highlights

• A new Find your next favourite section on the home page, just under the welcome: see what's trending this week, the all-time most played games, the newest arrivals, and — once you've played a few — games you haven't tried yet that are like the ones you play.
• The games under Today's puzzle now show what's trending this week when you come back, instead of the same three picks every time.
• Sort the games by Popular, on the home page and in the all games list, to see the most played ones first in every category.
• To know what's popular, opening a game now adds one to that game's count. Only the game's name is sent — no cookie, no ID, nothing that links your visits together. The privacy page explains it.
