An independent puzzle imprint

KINNIK GRID

Symmetry in every square.

A new imprint of puzzle books, built around one obsession: that a well-made grid should look as good as it solves.

Word, number, picture, cipher. The shapes a puzzle can take.

The playable specimen

A grid from our engine. Solve it here.

Every Kinnik Grid book is built on grids like this one. A specimen is always on the board; the earlier ones wait in the archive.

Why our grids

Built by our own engines, finished by hand.

Every Kinnik Grid puzzle starts inside software we wrote ourselves, then a person reviews and tunes it. No off-the-shelf apps, no recycled grids.

Our own engines

Word searches, sudoku, kakuro, logic grids and American-style premium crosswords come out of generators we built for Kinnik Grid, not from common market apps and never copied from anyone else.

Finished by hand

Every grid is reviewed, themed and difficulty-tuned by a person before it reaches a page, so the ramp from gentle to fiendish always feels right.

Symmetry in every square

Layouts follow strict rotational symmetry, the same obsession behind our mark. We believe a grid should look as good as it solves.

True large print

Generous type and roomy grids, laid out for comfortable solving without strain, for adults and seniors alike.
