## What is Pathspell?

Pathspell is a word-path duel. Draw one continuous line through the letter grid, visiting every cell exactly once, so the letters along your trail spell the target words in order. No keyboard, no tiles — just a path you trace.

Play your way — all free:
• Solo — unlimited 5×5 grids, at your own pace.
• Daily trail — the same grid for everyone (per Word language); keep your streak. One win locks the day.
• Live race — challenge a friend by link, QR, or a 5-character code and race the same board. First valid complete trace wins. Rematches are never ad-taxed.

Calm and fair. No account required. Standard reveal keeps races fair (word lengths only); a free Relaxed toggle shows the words. Your rival’s path is never shown mid-race — only shared progress.

Optional extras. Remove ads, or unlock Extra Paths (4×4 mini + 6×6 boards) for solo and hosting. 5×5 is free forever, and joining a friend’s invite is always free.

Pathspell is a Queuegames puzzle.
