About Us

Xenosmith Press is a small publishing house with a big passion for innovative puzzles and games that get you off the screen and into a good book.

Our Philosophy

We don't just publish puzzles—we craft entertaining hybrids that blend different puzzle types into unique, engaging experiences you won't find anywhere else. From logic challenges that weave into word games to themed puzzle adventures that take you on unexpected journeys, our books are designed to surprise and delight puzzlers of all skill levels.

We believe there's something magical about putting pen to paper, marking up pages, and working through challenges at your own pace. In a world that's increasingly digital, our physical books offer a refreshing return to hands-on problem-solving and the simple joy of turning pages.

Our Approach

Every puzzle book from Xenosmith Press includes:

  • Stories that provide context and depth - Our puzzles aren't just grids and clues; they're part of larger narratives
  • Hidden messages that reward careful solving - Discover inspirational insights as you progress through each collection
  • Quality design for an enjoyable solving experience - Large print, clear layouts, and thoughtful construction
  • Themes that resonate with readers' interests and values - From biblical wisdom to seasonal celebrations
