PLAY 50,000 UNIQUE WORD-GUESSING GAMES FOR FREE, OFFLINE, WITH NO ADS AND NO LIMIT!

AN EPIC JOURNEY
Word Inferno takes you on an epic journey through the depths of hell all the way to the highest heaven.
Play THOUSANDS of different word-guessing challenges along the way.
Complete and master one challenge after the other to strengthen your soul.
Keep advancing on your journey and face harder challenges.
Will you manage to reach The Almighty and conquer the ultimate trials? Or will your soul perish along the way like every other pilgrim before you?

VISIT DIFFERENT REALMS
Your journey will take you through seven different realms:
• Inferno: Home of lost souls.
• Pandæmonium: Home of the princes of hell.
• Purgatorio: Home of repentant souls.
• Paradiso Terrestre: Home of primordial life.
• Paradiso: Home of virtuous souls.
• Primum Mobile: Home of the angels.
• Empireo: Home of The Almighty.
Every realm contains multiple books, chapters and verses to complete and master.

CONQUER CHALLENGES
Every verse is an entirely unique word-guessing challenge with different rules and parameters.
The main objective of a verse is to guess one or multiple hidden words.
Every word you submit reveals a clue about the word to guess:
• A black letter means the letter is not in the hidden word.
• A gray letter means the letter is in the hidden word, but in the wrong position.
• A white letter means the letter is in the hidden word, in the correct position.

SOUL MAGIC
You can use soul magic if you are ever stuck on a verse and struggling to guess a word.
Soul magic reveals letters in exchange for a fragment of your soul.
• Black Magic reveals one letter that is not in the hidden word.
• Gray Magic reveals one letter in the hidden word, without revealing its position.
• White Magic reveals one letter in the hidden word, in the correct position.

SACRIFICE YOUR SOUL
Every verse has its arcane secrets protected by a magic seal.
Before you can even challenge a verse, you must first break the seal protecting it.
A soul sacrifice is required to break a seal.
Once a verse is unsealed, all of its secrets are revealed to you.
You are then free to challenge this verse as many times as you want and strengthen your soul with the knowledge it offers you.

STRENGTHEN YOUR SOUL
You will need to continuously strengthen your soul to make progress on your journey.
Your soul grows in strength every time you complete a verse.
The more difficult the verse, the more rewarding it is.
Your soul grows more by guessing words in fewer attempts and in less time.
You can replay the same verse repeatedly to keep fortifying your soul and to attain higher levels of mastery.

ATTAIN MASTERY
Every verse, chapter and book has seven different mastery ranks to attain.
To attain a higher mastery rank for a verse, complete this verse a specific number of times.
To attain a higher mastery rank for a chapter, reach that same rank for all of its verses.
To attain a higher mastery rank for a book, reach that same rank for all of its chapters.
Every new mastery rank you attain greatly strengthens your soul.

DAILY BLESSINGS
A guardian spirit will watch over you throughout your journey and encourage you to complete it.
