What Is a DMS Crossword Puzzle?
A DMS crossword puzzle is different from a traditional definition-based crossword.
Instead of clues, it is built around word translations.

Every correctly entered word helps reveal new ones, preserving the familiar crossword experience while making the gameplay more interactive, dynamic, and rewarding.

DMS crossword puzzles are available with four interface languages:
