Hold an arrow. Connect letters. Send the word sliding off the board! Words Arrow is a fresh word puzzle where spelling is only half the challenge. Start from an arrow, drag through neighboring letter cubes to form a valid word of the exact length, then release. If the exit path is clear, the connected letters slide away like a snake. If the path is blocked, they bounce back and you lose a life. SPELL THE EXACT WORD LENGTH Every arrow shows how many letters its word needs. Connect the right number of neighboring cubes, form a valid English word, and release to test your path. Invalid words do not cost a life, so you can experiment freely. CLEAR LANES IN THE RIGHT ORDER A correct word can still crash if another cube blocks its route. Study the board and decide which lane must leave first. Every successful move removes cubes, reshapes the board, and creates new connections for your next word. DISCOVER NEW CHALLENGES • Locked lanes that open after a nearby word is cleared • Locked letter cubes that reveal playable letters • Long lanes cleared through several shorter words SIMPLE TO LEARN, TRICKY TO MASTER • Hold an arrow and drag across neighboring letters • Match the exact number shown on the arrow • Clear every cube before all moves gone • Revive to continue from your current board FEATURES • Satisfying snake-like word exits • Colorful, easy-to-read 3D letter cubes • Hand-designed levels with changing word paths • Strategic lane order and obstacle puzzles • Quick levels for short breaks or longer sessions Can you spell every word and clear the board?
