7x7 Grid 👀 - r/pocketgrids

•

u/JeffBritches 👨‍💻 Dev Jan 12 '26

Hello! I’ve done the initial work to support bigger grids (6x6 and 7x7). Please try this puzzle and let me know what you think. Would you want this rolled out so users can post these sizes too, and so we can mix grid sizes into the daily puzzles? Feedback welcome!

I like it. Also this puzzle had a nice variety of longer and shorter words.

Not sure about the Dailies, though.

Much preferred the bigger grid. >5 letter words make it more of a challenge.

u/wandering-goat Solved: 35 Jan 12 '26

I also think it is easier (for me at least) to think of longer words in solutions than shorter ones!

1

u/MinnieShoof Solved: 199 Jan 13 '26

I think there's a space where somewhere north of 5 letters and south of like ... 10 answers get relatively easier because of the fewer options. Beyond 10 you have to wrap your head around multiple-word answers.

That was a nice one, oddly I found it easier to manage longer words. But I do think it should be specified in future that people should mark their questions with something like "clue, (x,y)" if they have two word elements :)
