Word Wheel Cache Builder
Make your own swipe-the-wheel word cache with a sharable play link.
Sign in to save this cache to your account
Free, just a username and passphrase, no email. Caches you build show up in My Caches so you can reopen and edit them without hunting for the edit link, and watch plays and wins. The same account syncs My Puzzle Texts across devices and manages your short links.

Caches you build here are saved to your account, so you can reopen and edit them in My Caches without the edit link.
This is a Word Wheel cache. Finders swipe across a letter wheel to spell words. Every required word fills its spot in a small crossword shape, and extra valid words made from the same letters count as bonus words. Solve the configured number of puzzles to reveal your final coordinates or keyword. You do not enter words or build the crossword yourself, the game picks pre-verified puzzles for you, scored on the server, so nothing is hidden in the page for a player to peek at.
Save this link now. Without the key you cannot edit or delete this puzzle (only the site admin can reset it).
Your puzzle
Shown at the top of the play page, so keep it short (up to 48 characters).
Shown to players as a link to your cache page.
Only the site admin can see this, in case they need to reach you about your cache. Never shown to players.
Game settings
On solve, reveal
Shown only after a player clears every required puzzle. Reveal either the final coordinates or a keyword, not both.
Where can I host an image for free?
Paste a direct https:// link to an image. Free image hosts that give a direct link include
ImgBB,
postimages.org, and
Cloudinary.
A geocaching.com image link works too. The link must start with https://.
Keep your cache in play to keep it live. Share the play link so people visit it; unused caches are cleaned up over time.
