About The Boston Globe Align

Align is a daily word puzzle where you swap letter tiles to make every row and column in a 5×5 grid spell a valid English word. Solve all 10 words, both horizontally and vertically, to complete the board. Every puzzle comes with a few letters locked in place to help guide your thinking. Created by crossword constructor Brendan Emmett Quigley, Align first appeared on The Boston Globe's games page and is now free to play in your browser.
