## What is Fewest Moves?

Fewest Moves is the daily word ladder that turns five minutes into your favorite mental workout.
Every day, everyone gets the same start word and the same target word. The rules are simple to learn and hard to master: change one letter at a time, make a real word at every step, and reach the target in the fewest moves possible. Find the shortest path and you earn a Perfect.
One puzzle a day. One shared challenge. Infinite bragging rights.

WHY YOU'LL GET HOOKED
A fresh, hand-tuned puzzle every single day
Dead-simple rules, surprising depth
See exactly how your solution stacks up against the optimal path
Build a daily streak you won't want to break

SOLVE COACH
Finished your puzzle? Replay it move by move. Solve Coach reveals the optimal ladder, shows where you drifted off the shortest path, and points out the smarter step you missed — so you actually get better.

CLIMB THE RANKED LADDER
Earn rating on every solve, rise through divisions, and compete across seasons. The sharper and more efficient you play, the higher you climb.

PLAY YOUR WAY
Assists for when you're stuck — backed by an honest integrity rule, so a clean solve always means a clean solve
Wind-Down mode and bonus Daily Challenges for when one puzzle isn't enough
Friend leagues to settle who really has the sharpest vocabulary

MAKE IT YOURS
Unlock a collection of beautiful themes and tile styles — light, dark, and everything in between.

BUILT FOR EVERY DAY
Quick enough for your commute, deep enough to think about all day. A universal app that plays great on iPhone and iPad, with Game Center leaderboards and achievements.
