Word Valleys

Features
Read full description

Word Valley is a calm, clever word puzzle set in a storybook kingdom floating above the clouds. Every castle stone carries a carved letter. Tap a stone and Wren, the young king, walks onto it and adds its letter to your word. The castle gate at the end of the path opens only when your route spells a real word — so the path you choose is your answer. But the kingdom is full of surprises: • Wheels turn, drawbridges slide and pillars rise, carrying their letters with them • Stones that only look like neighbours are neighbours — trust your eyes • Golden keys open locked stones, one lock per key • Crown jewels must all be gathered before the gate will open • Magic mirrors carry the king across the castle in a single step • Levers set wheels, bridges and pillars moving on their own • Royal carpets sweep the king onward, whether he likes it or not • Torchlit halls hide their letters until the king draws near FEATURES • Thousands of hand-crafted levels in multiple chapters, each introducing something new • A fresh Daily Puzzle every day, the same for everyone, with streak rewards • Endless trails that grow taller and stranger the further you go • Three stars per level: open the gate, find the longest word, use no hints • Bonus words fill your word jar and pay out coins • Friendly hints when you are stuck: show the next stone, reveal the word, or let the king walk there • Daily reward calendar, achievements and statistics • Gentle music and sound, haptics, light and dark themes, reduce-motion setting Relax, explore, and spell your way through the kingdom.
