And then like something unlocked in me as I was playing that first puzzle where I was like, oh, like the trick is I fill out all of the two letter words.

First, because there are only so many two letter words that exist.

This is my tip for anybody who wants to try out not words like, OK, I fill out A and T like at that's a word.

And then that alone gets you kind of kicked off.

You're like, well, that connects me to this other remaining larger word.

And I only have one.

maybe one or two letters left that could go here and I'll just try putting one in and see what happens.

And then as you go along, it ends up being kind of like this really brain expanding anagram because you're like looking at the letters that you have on your sort of virtual Scrabble board, if you will.

And you're like, I can only use these letters and certain permutations.

It's so fun.

I've played a ton of this game this week and really, really enjoyed it.

If you like word games, you will, you will enjoy it.

I think it's 12 bucks.

It's not a lot.

So I'm saying it's called NotWords.

I should specify it is a homonym.

It is spelled K-N-O-T-W-O-R-D-S.

But if you look for NotWords without the K, you'd probably still find it either way.

And it's on Google Play and it's on iOS.

So if you have a phone, you can play it.
