SUN ยท FLOWER ยท POT One word sits between two others and links them both. Sunflower. Flowerpot. Find it, and the chain grows. Chain Link Words is a word puzzle built on compound words and everyday phrases. Each answer becomes the anchor for the next, so a chain builds beneath you as you climb โ€” and one wrong turn is the difference between a clean run and a scrappy one. FIVE WAYS TO PLAY DAILY โ€” Five links, once a day. Everyone gets the same chain. Keep the streak alive. LADDER โ€” The long climbs, up to eleven links. No clock. Just how far you can go. BLITZ โ€” Ninety seconds. How much chain can you build before it runs out? RELAY โ€” A finished chain with gaps in it, fillable in any order. Work backwards, sideways, whatever gets you there. HUB โ€” One word in the middle. How many words can you hang off it? RECORDS โ€” Every past daily, still playable. Nothing expires. BUILT PROPERLY Every link in the game is a real compound word or a phrase people actually say โ€” checked against a corpus of billions of words, not a dictionary that treats "leaflove" and "lighthouse" as equals. Stuck? Spend a key to reveal a letter, or give up and move on. You collect keys every day and earn more for solving unaided. No ads. No account. No internet needed. Just words.
