Welcome To Hanging Hyena
Welcome to Hanging Hyena, your best choice for word makers, word game solvers, cryptography tools, puzzles, and study helpers. This site began as a small collection of Python scripts several years ago, starting
with a hangman solver and word descrambler. Over time, we added more solvers - tools to unscramble
words, calculate scrabble points, figure out boggle, and match patterns. We even created tools to
help with newspaper puzzles, a
jumble solver.
But we're more than word jumble solvers! In addition to our tools to unscramble words, we also built a
collection of cipher decoders for pen and paper cryptography. If you're wondering where to start, take a look at our Guide To Classical Cryptography. The collection includes everything from basic substitution cipher
tools to transposition ciphers.
Naturally, once we started writing word game solvers we wanted to try writing word games of
our own! Our first game was a cryptogram puzzle, which challenges you to solve a substition
cipher. You can play it on either easy or hard mode. Our second game asks you to unscramble
words (no peeking at the word descrambler!). It comes in a couple of versions,
including a daily news puzzle where you figure out words from the top headlines of the day.
Want to make your own printable puzzles? Got you covered there! Check out our puzzle maker
section - we've got tools for crosswords, word scrambles, word searches, and cryptograms.
At the top of this page, you see our word maker.
Simply enter your letters and it
will unscramble the words you can make from them.
And because customer service is job #1, we built backup sites - one for the
jumble solver, another for the
word unscrambler,
and a third one for scrabble.
Even an anagram maker
Need points for scrabble? Try the scrabble
helper. We've got a words with friends version as well. Trying to solve a puzzle that doesn't
require you to unscramble a word? No worries, we've got tools to pattern match (hangman) and
search word grids.
