Key takeaways

Makermint turns a written puzzle idea, matching, sliding, or word-based, into a 2D game.
You can ask for timers, difficulty tiers, daily challenges, or a specific visual theme.
Every puzzle game you publish gets a share link you can send to anyone who wants to play.

Puzzle games hold onto players like few other genres: short sessions, daily habits, and scores worth sharing. The category covers matching games, sliding tile puzzles, word games like Wordle, logic grids, and memory games, each built around one clear rule that's easy to learn and hard to put down.

A Makermint version runs as a 2D game in your browser. Describe the mechanic and theme you want (a memory match with animal art, a sliding puzzle that reveals a photo, a daily word challenge) and Makermint builds the levels, art, and difficulty curve to match, ready to play in a few minutes. Ask for another difficulty tier or a new twist, and try the next version right away.
