What's New in HaloWords
2.1
August 20, 2026
The biggest overhaul since launch – and it starts with nothing starting on its own. YOU DECIDE WHEN IT BEGINS Opening the app used to start the clock immediately. Now a start screen greets you: Challenge with 90 seconds, or Zen with no time pressure at all. THE CLOCK IS NOW A RESOURCE Every word you find gives seconds back. A good round extends itself. RANKS INSTEAD OF INVENTED PERCENTAGES Six ranks from Beginner to Genius, computed from the actual puzzle. You always see how far it is to the next one. MORE DEPTH IN EVERY ROUND Rare words earn bonus points. Consecutive hits build a combo multiplier up to ×2.0. PROGRESS THAT STICKS XP and levels, plus 3 new daily goals every day. BLITZ DIFFICULTY THAT MEANS SOMETHING Easy, Normal and Hard now move four visible levers instead of just the clock. GERMAN AND ENGLISH KEPT APART Both languages now track their own streaks, stats and levels. Your existing progress is preserved. BETTER WORDS Both word lists were rebuilt from current corpora and sorted by frequency – that's what feeds the new rarity bonus.
