Free to play unlimited times. Complete three consecutive puzzles using the fewest total moves.

Allowable transformations from the previous word:

  • Remove one letter: NODE > NOD.
  • Add one letter: BAN > BANG.
  • Replace one letter: BLACK > BLANK.
  • Rhyming (only perfect rhymes / same syllable count):
    So: GOOD > WOOD. But not: TALL > INSTALL.
  • Anagram: MATES > STEAM.
  • Within previous word: FORGOTTEN > GOT.
  • Contains previous word: MET > METICULOUS.
  • Closed compound words, like ‘FIREFIGHTER' are acceptable. Open and hyphenated compound words, like ‘ICE CREAM' and ‘CHECK-IN' can't be used.

HINTS

Hints are available on levels Moderate and Tricky.

Moderate: One Hint is available on Puzzle 2 and another Hint is available on Puzzle 3.

Tricky: One Hint is available which can be used on any of the three puzzles in this level.

Fiendish: No Hints are available.

A Hint can only be used before you select your first word for each puzzle. Once you select your first word, the Hint is function is switched-off - unless you use UNDO to return to the starting point, when an unused Hint becomes available again.

Using a Hint gives you the next Move Word along a shortest route to solving a puzzle.

British English and US English words allowable.

Puzzles refresh daily at midnight.
