If your kid is bored with regular crosswords, it might be time to give JoPat Games’ new word game, Cross Spin, a whirl!
Cross Spin combines traditional crossword puzzles with interactive gameplay that challenges kids’ creative thinking, vocabulary, and spatial awareness. Instead of simply answering trivia in rows and columns, older kids design their own solutions by spinning the board and filling in whichever boxes they please. Whether you’re sharpening your wordplay or just looking for a new spin on an old classic, this board game will stir up your game night rotation.

Fill in your crossword however you want based on prompts. You can even rotate the board if you’re stuck! | Source: JoPat Games


During the game, two or more players will race to complete matching mini-crossword puzzles based on prompts drawn from cards. If they’re stuck, players can rotate their crosswords any which way to make their words fit. But there’s a catch! When you’re finished with your puzzle, every orientation must read like real words — no “SDRAWKCAB” words allowed! Points are tallied based on puzzle completion, and the first to 25 points wins. With 10 crossword layouts and 160 different prompts, kids will never play the same round twice!
Families can add Cross Spin to their next game night at the links below. To get a taste of the action, you can also download a digital, single-player version of the game on the App Store.
