Sunday Paper Games
Six daily games, one paper
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Six games with your coffee: a word chain, a tangle of arrows, a knot of wire,
falling letters, a ledger of hidden hazards, and a paper route to ride.
Six small games every morning, in one paper. Each takes a few minutes at
most. None of them can be lost to bad luck, and none will eat your afternoon.
WELD — a word chain
Six words are welded into a chain, each making a compound word with the one
before it:
BUTTER · FLY · PAPER · WEIGHT · LIFT · OFF
butterfly, flypaper, paperweight, weightlift, liftoff
The first word is free. After that you get one letter and an empty box for each
of the rest, and you type it in. A wrong guess costs a strike and uncovers
another letter, so you are never stuck staring at nothing.
DISPATCH — a tangle of arrows
Every piece is a line that bends, with an arrowhead on the end, and they are
packed into a shape: a heart, a star, a crescent. Tap one and it slides off the
board — but only if nothing stands between its head and the edge it points at.
Three boards a day, each bigger than the last, and four chances for the lot.
CABLE — a knot of wire
Every colour has two terminals. Draw a cable from one to the other without
crossing another cable, and use every square on the board. Drive through a cable
already laid and you cut it, so the order you work in is the whole game.
LEDGER — a ledger of face-down tiles
Twenty-five tiles hide 1s, 2s, 3s and hazards. Each row and column shows two
numbers: the sum of its tiles and how many hazards it hides — every clue you
get, and every clue you need. Flip every 2 and 3 to balance the ledger. Flip a
hazard and the day is blotted. Pencil marks included, guessing never required.
ROUTE — the morning delivery round
Ride down the street with a basket of papers. Swipe to steer, press and hold
to brake, tap to toss a paper onto a subscriber's porch — the throw aims
itself at the mat glowing gold. Three routes a day, from the Early Edition to
the Late Extra, with trash cans, parked cars and potholes in the way, one
mercy retry, and an itemized pay stub at the end of the shift.
CHUTE — falling letters
Letters fall two at a time. Any word of three letters or more clears, across or
down — which helps until it eats the letters you were saving. Three of the words
you clear must fit the day's theme. Three tries a day.
ONE PAPER A DAY
The same puzzles for everyone, every day. Not games you binge. A small ritual
next to the coffee.
A RESULT WORTH SHARING
Every finish makes a row of marks — no letters, no positions, nothing that
spoils anyone. Paste it anywhere, at any hour.
NOTHING UNFAIR
Every Weld chain is hand-checked against a fixed list of compounds. Every Cable
board is proved to have exactly one solution before it ships. Every Dispatch
board is proved clearable from wherever you have got to. Chute deals the same
letters to everyone and gives three tries. Every Ledger board is proved
solvable without a single guess before it ships. Route deals the same three
streets to everyone, and a wall of trash always leaves one gap to ride
through. If you are stuck, there is something to find.
A WEEK WITH A SHAPE
Mondays are gentle and the weekend bites. The difficulty climbs the way a
crossword week does.

Ratings & Reviews
Sharper edges on a young paper.
ROUTE — the morning round got harder. The Early Edition now opens where the
Late Extra used to sit, and from the Main Run on, two of the three lanes can be
walled at once with a single gap to thread. There is always a way through; you
just have to find it at speed. On a keyboard, the space bar throws.
WELD — the theme peek finally looks like the hint it is, and the button that
commits a word now says what it does.
The paper's front page now tracks your Route shift too: which run you are on,
and what the morning paid.
