## What is Spell Duel?

Word duels against rivals at your level: you both get the same word and six tries, and the first to find it wins.

ONE WORD, ONE RIVAL
You and your rival get the same word and six tries each. The first letter is given. Red squares are right letters in the right place, yellow dots are letters that belong elsewhere. It's a race: whoever finds the word first wins the duel, however many tries it took.

RIVALS AT YOUR LEVEL
Every duel matches you with a rival close to your trophy count, so a Bronze player never meets a Legend. Your rival's run is recorded: another player's when one matches your level, a practice rival's otherwise. It plays back beside your board, so you never wait, and the clock only runs while you're in the duel.

CLIMB THE LEAGUES
Win to earn trophies, lose to drop a few. Trophies place you in one of seven leagues, from Bronze to Legend, and beating a stronger rival pays more. Track your win streak, your best league and your fastest solves on your profile.

RANKINGS AND ACHIEVEMENTS
Every arena has a ranking by trophies and a weekly ranking by wins, filled by a ladder of practice rivals, so there is always someone just above you. Sign in to Game Center to unlock achievements like First blood, On fire and Lightning and to play under your Game Center name. Without it, everything still works with a nickname.

MADE TO FEEL LIKE AN ARENA
A dark arena, a capybara mascot who celebrates and sulks with you, confetti when you win, and a promotion screen when you cross into a new league. Twenty animal avatars to pick from. Plays on iPhone and iPad.

EIGHT ARENAS
Each language is its own arena with its own words, rivals, league and ranking: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch and Turkish. Pick one, switch whenever you like, and keep your progress in every arena.

PLAY AS MUCH AS YOU LIKE
Every duel is free, with no energy and no daily cap. A short video ad plays after each duel. An optional monthly subscription removes it; nothing else is ever gated.
