About Minecraft Craftle
Craftle is a daily crafting puzzle for Minecraft players. Each day you see one recipe laid out on a crafting table, with the output slot empty. Your job is to name the item it makes, in six guesses or fewer.
Some days the answer is obvious the moment you see the grid. Other days you will be staring at a pattern of sticks, string and slabs wondering which of the game’s hundreds of recipes it could be.
If you have played Minecraftle, Craftle flips the idea around: instead of building a recipe to find a hidden item, you get the recipe and have to name what it makes.
How to Play
- Look at the ingredients, where they sit and how many of each there are.
- Start typing the item’s name and pick it from the list, or type it in full and press Enter.
- If the recipe is shapeless, the puzzle says so. Only the ingredients matter, not where they are placed.
- Get it right within six guesses and the output slot fills in.
Tips
- Count the ingredients. Eight of one block around a centre item is a very different recipe from a two-by-two square.
- Empty slots are a clue too: tools, armour and stairs all have tell-tale shapes.
- Colour matters. Wool, glass, concrete and banners often only differ by their dye.
- The name list only contains real recipe outputs, so if it doesn’t suggest your guess, it is probably not the answer.

Craftle FAQ
They are close cousins. Both are daily crafting puzzles with six guesses. In Minecraftle you place ingredients in the grid to work out a hidden recipe; in Craftle the recipe is already laid out and you name the item it crafts. Craftle is our own game and isn’t connected to Minecraftle, so you can play both each day.

A shapeless recipe works wherever you put the ingredients in the grid, so only what the ingredients are matters, not their positions.
