Teachers and creators told us they love spreadsheets. The familiar grid, the quick edits, the simple copy-paste workflow. So we asked: why not bring that experience to game creation?

The new Table View does exactly that.

Instead of clicking through individual word cards, you can now edit your entire game in a clean, spreadsheet-style layout. Fewer clicks. Faster edits. Easier copy-paste.

How It Works

Switching to table view is simple:

  1. Open any game in the Creator
  2. Click the Table View toggle button at the top of the editor
  3. See all your words and clues in a familiar grid layout
  4. Click any cell to edit directly
  5. Use standard keyboard shortcuts to navigate and copy-paste
