You can play Cryptogram: Words and Codes entirely for free in your browser right now without downloading a single file.

How to play

Cryptogram: Words and Codes is the field where the encrypted quote is placed. In this quote, each letter is assigned a specific number, which is located below the letter. It is chosen randomly every level. For example, the letter “A” will have the number 5, this means that in place of the missing letters, where the number 5 is, there should be the letter “A” and so on. The difficulty is that initially most of the letters in this quote are missing and you only know a limited number of letters. Your task is to first fill in the letters you already know, and then logically solve the entire quote.

The keyboard may contain letters of three colors:
1) Green color – the letter is somewhere else in the phrase.
2) Orange color - the letter is in the phrase, but you entered it incorrectly.
3) Gray color - the letter is no longer in the phrase or was not there initially.

In each level you can only make 3 mistakes. This is done in order to avoid sorting through all the letters.
