↑ Set in the Linked style: enter the maze on the left, walk the letters' floor corridor, and exit on the right

Puzzlebyrinth 2026

Covers ASCII letters, digits, and symbols only — kana/kanji will not render.

Design

Designed for this site's logo and headlines. Every stroke is strictly horizontal or vertical; diagonals are drawn as connected pixel steps, like corridors in a maze. All glyphs share a fixed width (monospaced), so the font drops neatly into boards, scores, and timers. It covers the 95 printable ASCII characters.

As a puzzle-site typeface it takes legibility seriously: 0 has a center dot, I has serifs, l has a foot, so O/0, I/l/1, Z/2, S/5, and B/8 are distinguishable at a glance.

  • Regular: For headings, scores, and UI.
  • Linked: Joins every letter along a baseline corridor, turning any string into a single maze, with meander (Greek-key) loops below every other letter. Display only.

License

Released under the Puzzlebyrinth Font License 1.0 — free, commercial use allowed, attribution required. By downloading or using the font you agree to its terms. In short (the full license text, also bundled in the ZIP, prevails over this summary):

You can

  • Use the font free of charge, personally or commercially (logos, print, video, streaming, games).
  • Embed it as a web font and bundle it with apps and games.
  • Modify it and redistribute original or modified versions.

Conditions (required)

  • Attribution: when you publish or distribute work that uses the font, credit “Font: Puzzlebyrinth Maze (puzzlebyrinth.com)” (or an equivalent) in a reasonable place — credits, video description, site footer, colophon, etc. Private, unpublished use needs no attribution.
  • When redistributing the font files, include the license text (LICENSE.txt) unchanged.
  • Modified versions may not use the original font name — pick a different name and keep this license.

You cannot

  • Sell the font files by themselves (bundling with software or games is fine).

The font is provided as-is, without warranty. It does not cover Japanese (kana/kanji), so specify a fallback font when using it on the web.
