Puzzlebyrinth Slitherlink

Design

A typeface inspired by pencil puzzles like Slitherlink. A faint lattice of grid dots sits behind orthogonal strokes, evoking a solution penciled onto graph paper — a quiet, distinctive look for headings and logos.

Its skeleton uses the same orthogonal strokes as Maze, so the two share a rhythm when mixed. Confusable pairs like O/0 and I/l/1 stay legible.

• Regular: Dot lattice + orthogonal strokes, for headings and logos.

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 Slitherlink (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 Private, unpublished use needs no attribution.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.
