Welcome to a minimalistic word-guessing challenge! Each level gives you a central word, and your task is to figure out its related word. Think of it like this: if the main word is 'pen,' you might guess 'ink.' A visual hint — a line of dots (•) — will tell you exactly how long the hidden word is. For each correct guess, you'll score 10 credits. Feeling stuck? You can spend credits to get a little help: use the [+] button to uncover a letter, or the [-] button to clear away all unhelpful letters from your choices. If your credits run out, tap the top-right icon to stock up! - FEATURES • Over 200 words to guess • Minimalistic style, distraction-free game • Easy to play, hard to master • Get a letter, or remove all useless ones • Watch an ad to get 10 credits, or buy some credits • Ideal to play solo or with your family and friends - LANGUAGES English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish ******************************************* Frank Eno (aka XSGames) is a solo indie game dev based in Italy, crafting escape room & puzzle games since 2021.
