The Weekend Times
Screen-Free Weekend Newspaper With Puzzles & Games
A monthly print newspaper of puzzles, crosswords, trivia and offline games, made for a screen-free weekend.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Sahil, the maker of The Weekend Times.
Why I built this Our days have quietly turned into more screen time. We say we’ll unplug, and then we scroll anyway. I wanted a day ritual that feels like a treat and isn’t another app: a real newspaper you can hold, fold, and doodle on.
What it is The Weekend Times is a monthly print newspaper made only of puzzles, crosswords and games. No notifications, no ads, no feeds. Just a pencil, a cup of chai or coffee, and something fun to figure out.
📰 Crosswords and puzzles for a lazy Saturday morning 🎲 Games the whole family can play together, from kids to grandparents 📵 Zero screen time: it’s designed so you can put the phone down 🎁 Great as a gift, and we’re also working with companies on corporate gifting
Where it’s at We’re early, and the first readers have already shaped what goes into each issue. We already have hundreds of users having The Weekend Times and found it really good way to claim their screen free days and a method to be around with real humans more. Up next: more puzzle types, more issues, and getting it into more hands across India.
What I’d love your feedback on
Would you gift this, and to whom? (Parents, kids, friends, your team?)
What puzzle or game would you most want to see in the next issue?
Does the page explain the concept clearly in the first 10 seconds?
I’ll be here all day replying to every comment. Tell me what you love, what’s missing, and what you’d change about your day. And if you’ve ever wished your weekend felt less like a screen, this one’s for you. 🙏
