## What is Lost Words?

Will you find all the hidden letters ?

With Lost Words, your goal will be to find all the hidden letters of a given word. You will have 6 attempts to find the right word. While searching for the right word, you’ll receive hints based on your previous trials. Correctly placed letters are shown in green, while misplaced letters are shown in orange.

You will be able to play 2 different game modes. One in which you can relax, choose the difficulty you want and train your mind to be a “Lost Words” master. In a second mode, you will be challenged to find as many words as possible. In this mode, you’ll be given a chance to retrieve bonuses, but also beware of maluses. These maluses will make it much harder to find the hidden word. Finally the more you play, the more you’ll accumulate Magma coins which will let you get additional bonuses in the shop.

The game can be played by children and adults alike. We have included a “kid” mode with easier and shorter words to find.

Set in a beautiful egyptian environment, the game is not only super fun, it is also a great way to train your mind. Download Lost Words for free today!

### 5/5 — My Favorite Word Game

*2016-09-06*

Thought provoking. Always changing. Great challenge. Love this game!!!

### 5/5 — Simple

*2015-08-12*

I love the setting, and I truly enjoy playing

### 4/5 — Good game

*2014-10-08*

All in all a wonderful game

### 3/5 — I like this game.

*2014-07-01*

I really like this game. I play it like mastermind which is cool since I am very bad at spelling. I keep getting an error message though that doesn't make any sense and is not explained anywhere. Something about bridges.

### 5/5 — Almost Perfect

*2014-05-28*

This game offers great brain food and I love playing it daily. I have 2 suggestions: 
1) the submit button would prevent the inevitable mistype. 
2) adding a dictionary and thesaurus link would enhance the educational aspect & add crossword benefits. 
3) Please make it clear for new players that this is European spelling.  
Thank you for my favorite game.

### 4/5 — Love the game

*2014-04-20*

I've played only Classic easy, but I love the challenge. I agree with the others. A "submit" button is definitely needed. Also I'd like to be able skip spaces to place later letters first in order to figure out preceding letters.

### 4/5 — Don't understand arcade

*2014-03-09*

Like the game, challenging.  Don't understand arcade so play classic option.  I agree about the submit button.  Mistyping on the last letter loses the round.

### 4/5 — BON

*2014-02-24*

Super bon jeu a essayer !

### 3/5 — Lost Words

*2014-02-22*

There is no explanation of what red letters mean. Only orange and green are explained.
I agree with others that there needs to be a submit button. I accidentally hit the wrong key several times and it submitted when I didn't mean to.

But the red letters are the biggest problem, with no idea what they mean.

### 4/5 — pretty good

*2014-02-16*

this game is a very good game for people who like word puzzles.  it makes you get kind of a brain cramp.
