Five word puzzles. One clock. Nothing else. Each puzzle hands you a word someone already guessed, marked up with what was right and what was wrong. Exactly one word in the dictionary fits those marks. Find it, then do it four more times, as fast as you can. No six-guess grid. No waiting until tomorrow. Just you and the clock. HOW IT WORKS Lime means a letter is in the right spot. Lemon means it is in the word, somewhere else. An empty tile means the letter is not in the word at all. Wrong guesses are allowed. They only cost you time. BUILT FOR SPEED The clock runs from the first letter to the last word. Every run is timed to the hundredth of a second, with a split for each of the five puzzles, so you can see exactly which word cost you the run. Your best times are kept, along with every run you have ever finished. The average of your last ten is the number that tells you whether you are actually getting faster. RACE YOUR FRIENDS Every finished run can be sent as a challenge. Whoever opens it gets the exact same five puzzles, in the same order, with your time to beat. No accounts, no sign-up, no waiting for anyone. REAL WORDS ONLY Answers come from 2,263 everyday words. No plurals, no obscure crossword filler, nothing you would have to look up. Guesses are checked against a list of 5,882 words. FREE The whole game is free. A one-time purchase removes ads for good if you would rather play without them.
