Letters fall. Words clear. A hidden word hunts you the whole way down. TERDZ is a falling-block word puzzle with a deduction twist. Drop clusters of letter tiles, spell words across rows AND columns to clear them, and chain cascades for huge combos — all while a hidden word, the Cipher, ticks away at the top of the screen. Every word you clear is secretly a guess at the Cipher: green, yellow, grey, just like you know it. Crack the Cipher to trigger a screen-clearing Cipher Break. Ninety seconds to learn. Months to master. Built for one thumb, in portrait. GAME MODES • Daily Drop — one shared puzzle a day, an endless survival run. Keep your streak. • Cascade — an endless, score-chasing marathon.
