How it works
From a list of names to a printed keepsake, with a free puzzle on the way through.
1. Type your people in
One name or in-joke per line. Nicknames welcome. Anything the family would recognize is exactly right, and multi-word entries are fine.
2. Add a clue where you want a crossword entry
Put "~ your clue" after any line and it becomes a crossword answer. Your clue, your joke. Lines without a clue still ride the word searches.
3. Take the free word search
One real word search built from your own words, playable on screen and free to print. Nothing is hidden behind a payment before you see it work.
4. Get the full book
The full version adds the cover with your family name on it, your crosswords, more word searches, and the answer key in the back.
5. Print it or save it
One Print click. Choose Save as PDF and you have the file, ready for a home printer or a print shop.

Questions
What do I get for free?
One real word search built from your own words, playable on screen and free to print. It is your words, not a sample of someone else you do not know.
Is this a subscription?
No. One book, one purchase. You buy it once and it is yours to keep.
How many words do I need?
About ten makes a good book. The app tells you what you have unlocked and how many more words open a bigger book, so you are never guessing.
What do I keep?
The print-ready book plus your word list, which you can export as plain text any day you like.
Can I get the exact same book again?
Yes. Every book is built from your order, so it rebuilds identically every time. A reprint in five years matches the one you print today.
