## What is Last Word?

Twelve words. One chain. A new puzzle every day.

Every day, everyone gets the same grid of 12 words. Tap words to build a chain where each one starts with the last letter of the word before it: tiger → river → robin. Every valid chain scores, and longer chains score far more.

Hidden in every grid is exactly one chain that uses all 12 words. Find it and it's worth as much as every other chain in the puzzle put together.

HOW IT WORKS
• Tap words in order to build a chain, then submit it
• A chain also scores every shorter chain inside it
• Watch your points build up as each new chain lights up
• Climb six ranks, from Starter to Last Word

A PUZZLE FOR EVERY DAY
• A new grid at 08:00 UTC, the same for every player
• Easiest on Sunday, hardest on Saturday
• Plays offline once it's on your phone
• Keep your daily streak going

HINTS WHEN YOU'RE STUCK
Three hints point you toward the full chain without handing it over: mark both ends, show how words connect, or reveal the next link. Each hint lowers your top possible rank, so solving it alone always counts for more.

ONE DAILY LEADERBOARD
Compete on Most Points and Fastest Solve on one leaderboard shared by every player. Pick a name built from two word lists, like Velvet Otter. No accounts and no sign-up.

SHARE WITHOUT SPOILERS
Your result card shows your rank and how far you got, never the words.

PUZZLE LIBRARY
Missed a day? The last 7 puzzles are always free to play.
