Wordiest Classic vs Lamplit

"Fun game. And a seemingly positive use of AI." – Peter Sagal A brand new version of Darrell Anderson's classic word construction game "Wordiest"

Uncover hidden words by lamplight. Lamplit is an acrostic puzzle game: a modern take on the Victorian tradition of weaving secret messages into clever clues. Solve each clue, and watch the first letters of your answers reveal a hidden spine word, glowing to life one letter at a time. NOW ON IPAD AND IPHONE DUO Lamplit is made for the big screen too. On iPad and the unfolded iPhone Duo, the spine word runs down its own column beside your clues, so you watch the hidden word appear as you type. Play in portrait or landscape, in Split View or a Stage Manager window. On iPhone Duo, fold or unfold mid-puzzle and your letters, your place and your time carry straight across. A DAILY PUZZLE, EVERY DAY, FREE Monday to Friday brings a single acrostic. Weekends bring the double acrostic, where the first and last letters of your answers spell two hidden words. A STARTER LIBRARY, NOT A DEMO Twenty puzzles from day one, free forever, to play at your own pace. TWO CLUE STYLES Modern clues are clean and direct. Classic clues are lyrical and cryptic, in the Victorian parlour tradition. Earn Classic Mode by playing: it's a reward, not a paywall. FAIR BY DESIGN No subscriptions. No ads.
