What Hecate adds to this puzzle workflow
| Feature | Why it matters | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Topic-based puzzle generation | The puzzle can be shaped around the topic, words, or solving goal instead of a generic theme. | Use a focused prompt to create a Word Search that matches the session. |
| Word Search mechanics | The hidden-word grid format fits when recognition, spelling, and repeated exposure matter more than clue interpretation. | Find each target word hidden in the letter grid. Words are selected by marking a straight path from the first letter to the last. |
