About
What is Grid Leveling?
Grid Leveling is a free browser-based puzzle platform built for people who want a quick, satisfying logic challenge without ads, accounts, or app downloads. Every game runs instantly in your browser on desktop or mobile.
Our flagship game, Queens, is a grid logic puzzle inspired by LinkedIn's Queens puzzle: place one queen in every row, column, and colored region with no two queens touching.
We also host Wend, a word-path puzzle where you trace adjacent letters to spell hidden words, a classic Sudoku game with 9×9 and 6×6 grids, and Patches, a rectangle-partition puzzle inspired by LinkedIn's Patches: divide the grid into rectangles that match every clue's size and shape.
Newest is Crossclimb, a word ladder in the spirit of LinkedIn's Crossclimb: climb from one word to another changing a single letter per rung.
Each game offers multiple difficulty levels, a new daily challenge, and hundreds of practice puzzles so you can train your logic skills at your own pace. Start with today's Daily Sudoku Challenge or learn how to solve the Queens puzzle step by step.
