Drag through the app
A proper Slovenian crossword, built to be honest
Križanke ships 2,000 interlocking crosswords across three difficulty tiers. Every across and down run is a real Slovenian word, validated against a Slovenian dictionary, and the clues are built from open language data, with the most common words hand-written for a natural feel. Everything runs on your device.
2,000 crosswords
Two thousand interlocking grids, from quick small puzzles to dense large ones, enough to keep going for a very long time.
Three difficulty tiers
Lahka, Srednja and Težka: from easy grids of common words to large grids with tougher vocabulary. Pick a tier and get a fresh puzzle.
Real Slovenian words
Every answer is checked against the Slovenian hunspell dictionary, so you never hit an invented word.
Clues from open data
Definitions and synonyms drawn from Slovenian Wiktionary and the CJVT Thesaurus, with hundreds of common words hand-clued.
Family-friendly
A safety pass removes crude, offensive or trademarked answers, so the whole set stays clean.
Points and optional helps
Earn points for every solve, with bonuses for speed and for finishing with no helps, then spend them on optional helps at your own pace.
Crossword of the day
A fresh daily puzzle to come back for. Solve it each day to build a streak and earn a streak bonus.
Achievements
Fourteen badges to unlock as you go, spread across solves, perfect solves, day streaks and daily challenges.
Resume anytime
Progress, history and personal-best times are saved on device. Pick up any unfinished puzzle where you left off.
Solve it your way
A custom Slovenian on-screen keyboard, three text sizes for easy reading, and gameplay toggles like check-as-you-type and auto-advance.
Slovenian and English
The whole interface in Slovenian or English, light or dark, with a warm paper-newspaper look.
Comfortable on tablets, too
On a tablet or an iPad, Križanke keeps the feel of a crossword booklet: the grid and clues stay at a comfortable reading width, the Slovenian keyboard grows with the screen, and there is room for the clue list to breathe. The screenshots below come from a 10-inch tablet.
The grid and every clue at once
On iPad the crossword takes the left, the full across and down lists sit on the right, and you stop scrolling back and forth to read a clue. The screenshots below come from a 13-inch iPad Air.
Built natively for iPhone and iPad
The iOS app is a native SwiftUI build of Križanke, developed alongside the Android version at the same 1.2 release. It carries the exact same 2,000 puzzles, hints, scoring, daily crossword and achievements, and on iPad it rotates freely between portrait and landscape. The screens above come straight from the iOS build.
Data and privacy
Križanke runs entirely on your device and requests no network permission. All 2,000 puzzles are bundled with the app, and your progress, points and settings are stored locally.
