Letters fall. Order matters! Wordini is a word hunt puzzle. Hidden words from a category are tucked into a grid of letters. Swipe across neighboring letters (diagonals count too) to find a word. Its letters vanish and the letters above drop down. Pick the wrong order and the remaining words can no longer be made: the game tells you right away, and you undo the last word. HOW TO PLAY • The boxes show how long each hidden word is. • Drag across neighboring letters to spell a word. • As letters fall, new words appear: find the right order. • Stuck? Take a hint: first the first letter, then the whole path. WHAT'S INSIDE • 20 categories with 12 levels each: from 3×3 up to 6×6. • Daily puzzle: the same 5×5 for everyone, no ads. Keep your streak going and share your result. • Master puzzle: a 7×7 challenge once a month. • Theme week: one category in the spotlight every week. Collect pieces, earn rewards. • Find words fast for combos; finish without hints or undo for three stars. • Your first undo in every level is free. • 13 languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Indonesian and Turkish. Pick the app language and the puzzle language separately: hunting words in another language is a fun way to build vocabulary. • Puzzles play offline too. Formerly Kelime Hane: rebuilt from scratch, with new puzzles and new languages.
