Tour of Phrase is a free word puzzle that pairs chess-knight movement with hidden language. Every square you land on is a legal knight's-tour move, and every legal move reveals the next character of a phrase, so you're solving a route and a sentence at the same time. A new puzzle publishes six days a week. No signup, download, or chess experience required.
