Yesterday, on International Puzzle Day, PressReader, a digital platform for newspapers, magazines, and books, announced the introduction of interactive puzzles, further expanding its content offering.
PressReader says users can now enjoy the daily challenge of interactive puzzles on the web, and iOS and Android app versions of the platform. The collection includes classic staples such as sudoku, concise crossword and word search, as well as dynamic puzzle types like make tracks and pathfinder.
Puzzle pages are a feature of traditional print newspapers and magazines, offering readers a daily dose of relaxation, challenge, and fun. Introducing puzzles on PressReader honors this tradition while delivering a complete and engaging reading experience in the digital age, added the company.
Puzzles are available to readers in PressReader’s sponsored reading zones, known as HotSpots, which include public, academic, and K–12 libraries, as well as the company’s business partners in travel, leisure and healthcare. They’re also available to individual subscribers, PressReader continued.
“Adding puzzles is the next step in our mission to create the richest, most engaging reading experience possible,” said Ruairí Doyle, CEO of PressReader. “By adding this selection of puzzles to our existing catalog of 8,400+ newspapers and magazines and more than 140,000 eBooks, we’re giving readers more ways to interact and discover relevant content and entertainment. All within one seamless platform.”
Just like a daily newspaper, the company says new puzzles are added every day. Users on PressReader’s web platform can also access puzzles from the previous 28 days.
