Netflix has dropped its latest game on mobile called Puzzled. The best part about it is that you don’t need a Netflix subscription to play this game. Yes, absolutely anyone can play this free-to-play game on mobile. And there’s a second best part, too…
Stranger Things Season 5 goes live today, and so does its special event in Netflix Puzzled!
If you’re a Stranger Things fan, you’ll be happy to know that Netflix’s latest game is bringing themed challenges based on the show. Just like the series, the special event runs from November 26th to December 31st.
During the event, you’ll find a new puzzle waiting each day. And with that, you get the added incentive of unlocking behind-the-scenes videos and glimpses of Mind Flayers, Demogorgons, and even Vecna. The whole idea lands just in time for fans preparing for the endgame in Hawkins!
And apart from that, there’s a lot more to explore in the game!
Puzzled brings a wide spread of Netflix hits, including Squid Game, KPop Demon Hunters, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, and Emily in Paris. It mixes them with classics like Sudoku and reimagined crosswords.
The game is more like a collection of classic and new puzzle games. The roster of word games includes Bonza, Keysmash, Crossover and Waywords.
Bonza breaks the usual crossword routine by scattering pieces you need to slot together with theme-based hints. Keysmash gives consonant clusters that you must fill with the right vowels to expose the overarching idea.
Crossover presents a crossword where every letter is already on the board. The real task is swapping them around until each row and column forms correctly clued words. Waywords links words into a navigable path, asking you to dodge decoys that slow your progress.
Logic games include Sudoku and Starstruck. The latter task you with placing stars precisely so that each row, column, and coloured area contains only one.
Netflix Puzzled includes visual puzzles as well. Right now, there are two games: Jigsaw and Shapes. The devs plan to keep growing the catalogue over time. Also, the game is ad-free and is playable offline. So, check it out on the Google Play Store.
