## What is Palindrome?

RACECAR. KAYAK. TACO CAT. Some words read the same in both directions — and solving them feels like magic.

PALINDROME is the mirror word puzzle. Every answer reads identically forwards and backwards, and the game plays like it: place a letter, and its mirror twin appears on the other side of the golden axis. Half the word is your move. The other half is the reflection.

■ THE MIRROR MECHANIC
Tap letter tiles to fill the blanks. Every letter you place auto-fills its mirrored position in teal — the puzzle teaches you what a palindrome is just by playing. Three hint words point to the answer; connect them and the word clicks into place.

■ 500 LEVELS, 10 CHAPTERS, 100 STAGES
Begin with little mirrors like MOM and NOON. Climb through five-letter classics (LEVEL, RADAR, KAYAK), palindromic places from QAANAAQ to TUMUT, rare gems like ZUZ and PEEWEEP, playful phrases (TACO CAT, SLEEK EELS, STRESSED DESSERTS), and finish among the immortals: SIT ON A POTATO PAN, OTIS · GO HANG A SALAMI, I'M A LASAGNA HOG · and the crown jewel, A MAN, A PLAN, A CANAL: PANAMA.

■ EVERY WIN TEACHES A WORD
Solve a level and its card appears — meaning, pronunciation you can hear aloud, and your stars. Your journey doubles as a word book you can browse anytime.

■ A NEW MIRROR EVERY DAY
The Daily Mirror gives everyone the same word each day. Keep your streak alive.

■ BEAT THE CLOCK
From level 101 the timer starts at 1:00. Solve within 30 seconds and your time bank grows — up to five full minutes for the hardest mirrors.

■ FAIL SPECTACULARLY
Lose your three hearts and the mirror shatters — in one of five animated fail scenes. The stage restarts with completely fresh words dealt from the chapter pool, so no run ever repeats.
