There are creators behind our daily puzzles. Tracy Bennett curates the day's Wordle solution to keep it lively and varied. Winn Allu creates each connections board, including all those categories that try to stump you. Sam Esersky combs through every last letter, word, and pangram in spelling bee so that loyal players of all skill levels enjoy it. Our puzzles are human made every day with the standards you'd expect from the New York Times. This matters because when you choose to spend time with our games, it should be time well spent solving puzzles that are challenging, surprising, and joyful. Puzzles handcrafted for you.
