This case study outlines the creation of an interactive crossword puzzle application developed for Nobat Newspaper to enhance reader engagement and digital presence. The solution was designed to bring a traditional newspaper puzzle experience into a dynamic, online, and user-friendly format.
The client wanted to digitize their popular crossword section, traditionally featured in the print edition, to attract a younger audience and increase website traffic. The challenge was to design an engaging, responsive, and easy-to-manage online crossword platform integrated with their content management system.
Key issues faced by the publisher in modernizing their crossword experience included:
We developed a custom web-based crossword puzzle system with interactive features, responsive design, and admin tools for puzzle management and real-time user tracking.
Our team built an intuitive puzzle interface with real-time validation, timers, and progress saving options. The platform was integrated with Nobat’s CMS for daily puzzle uploads, making management effortless for editors. Users could solve puzzles online, compete for rankings, and share their achievements on social media, increasing overall engagement.
The Nobat Cross Word Puzzle successfully transformed a traditional print feature into a modern, interactive experience. This project stands as an excellent example of how digital innovation can revitalize reader interaction and strengthen a publication’s online ecosystem.
