## What is WIN?

Every word you play brings you closer to the final answer.

WIN is a competitive word game built on one simple idea: you are given a category and five starting letters, and you type an answer that fits. Get it right and you win that starting letter. 
DAILY CHALLENGES
Three fresh puzzles every day, each with its own nerve:
• SUDDEN DEATH — fifteen categories, five letters, and one wrong answer ends the run.
• RUSH — two minutes, thirty categories, unlimited passes. How far can you get?
• HAMMER — one category, ninety seconds, keep hammering until you run dry.

PLAY WITH OTHERS
Start a private room with friends, drop into a public room with strangers, or race head to head. Everyone answers the same categories at the same time, so there is nowhere to hide. Fastest answer takes the letter. 

PLAY ALONE
Solo mode is the whole game at your own pace, with categories you choose.

YOUR RECORD
Every answer is scored and kept. Track your acceptance rate, rare finds, longest word, alphabet coverage and vocabulary, and climb the daily and lifetime leaderboards. Feats mark the moments worth remembering.

WIN COINS
Coins are the game's currency. Earn them by finishing dailies, winning matches and playing well, or buy them if you want more. Paid modes charge a Coin entry fee. In a public match every entry joins one pot that is paid back out by finishing position, so a strong finish wins back more Coins than it cost and a low finish does not get its entry back. Coins have no cash value and cannot be exchanged for money or withdrawn.

WIN PRO
An optional subscription that unlocks unlimited multiplayer, the full Daily archive, complete statistics and every category. Live daily games stay free for everyone.

• WIN Pro Monthly — $4.99 per month (₹99 in India)
• WIN Pro Yearly — $19.99 per year (₹499 in India)

Prices vary by country. Your exact local price is always shown in the app before you confirm any purchase.

New subscribers get a 1-month free trial. When the free trial ends, WIN Pro renews automatically at the price above unless it is cancelled first, and any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.

Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal, at the price above, within 24 hours before the end of that period. You can manage your subscription and turn off auto-renew in your Apple Account settings after purchase.
