How to Play

Pick four words that belong together and press Submit. A solved category locks into the board, and wrong guesses spend one mistake.

Strategy Guide

A strong word puzzle strategy is to lock obvious literal sets first, then test the words with double meanings. When One away appears, keep the three strongest links and swap the weakest tile instead of rebuilding the whole guess.

Daily and Unlimited

Daily mode gives everyone the same puzzle until midnight. Unlimited mode keeps serving fresh sets for practice, testing, or a small word-game spiral.
