Do You Know Your Lingo? Play the free word guessing game based on the hit TV gameshow - and guess as many words as you like, every single day. The Word Game You Know From TV If you’ve ever watched the show and wanted to play along, this is your chance! The rules are simple: we give you the first letter and you have 5 guesses to find the word. After each guess, we’ll show you which letters are in the right position and which ones appear in the word but need to move. Work through the clues, narrow it down, and find the Lingo! It’s a game you can dip into for five minutes or lose yourself in for an hour - either way, you’re giving your brain a genuine workout. A Word Puzzle Game - But Not Just One a Day Unlike other word puzzle games that give you a single daily challenge and make you wait until tomorrow, Lingo lets you play as many rounds as you want, whenever you want. Sharpen your vocabulary and keep playing for as long as you like. That said, if you love a daily word challenge, we’ve got one of those too! Lingo Daily Word is a dedicated daily word puzzle - a fresh word every day to test your guessing skills. Build a daily word training habit that improves your vocabulary and keeps your brain sharp over time. Add Lingo to your daily routine, share your results with friends and find out who really has the best word knowledge. Lingo Leagues - Matched to Your Level Lingo Leagues put you up against players of a similar ability, so every league is genuinely competitive. As you play and complete word rounds, you’ll earn points and climb through the league tiers. Leagues reset regularly, giving you a fresh start and a new group to compete against. Whether you’re a casual player finding your feet or a word game veteran chasing the top spot, there’s a league that fits where you are right now. Collect and Upgrade Your Letter Tiles Lingo features a Letter Tile collection. The higher the level of your tiles, the more points they generate per game - so the more you play, the more every correct guess is worth. There’s always the next upgrade to work towards. Go On a Hot Streak Keep guessing correctly and you’ll activate Hot Streak - Lingo’s bonus mode that kicks in when you’re on a roll. String together enough correct words in a row and Hot Streak fires up, doubling your points and building progress towards a chest full of rewards. The more momentum you build, the more there is at stake with each new word! Track Your Progress Whether you’re trying to beat your own personal best or simply enjoying the puzzle, your stats are always there to show how far you’ve come. With Daily Word & streak tracking you can build a routine, stay consistent, and watch your word skills improve. Personalise Your Game Customise your Lingo experience with backgrounds and other cosmetic items. It’s a nice way to make the game feel like yours, and gives you something extra to aim for beyond the words themselves. Why Lingo? • Unlimited word guessing rounds - not just one a day • Official TV Lingo gameshow format • Daily word puzzle with streak tracking • Ability-matched League play with regular resets • Hot Streak mode for double points and reward chests • Collectable and upgradeable Letter Tiles • Cosmetic unlockables including backgrounds • Free to play with daily rewards • From the developers of Tipping Point Blast & Catchphrase!
