Float Five
Read full descriptionHide full description
Guess the five-letter word before your oxygen runs out! Float Five is a word-guessing puzzle with a cosmic twist. Letters float as physics-driven bubbles in a zero-gravity chamber, and every mission is a race between your vocabulary and your air supply. HOW IT WORKS • Guess the hidden 5-letter word in six tries. • Green means right letter, right spot. Yellow means right letter, wrong spot. • Win missions to earn Star Dust and Cosmic Insight, and climb the Stellar Ranks. EXPLORE THE ATLAS Chart your way across a galaxy map of word systems. Every solved word lights up a new star, complete systems to earn badges like Orbital Observer and Galactic Scholar. MISSION TOOLS Unlock and deploy tools that bend the game in your favor: • Telescope: scout a letter before you guess • Meteor: blast a wrong letter off your keyboard • Wormhole: one more try OXYGEN SYSTEM Each failed mission costs an Oxygen Bubble. Bubbles refill over time or go Zen. ZEN MODE One purchase, infinite calm: unlimited oxygen, no mission timer, no interruption ads. Just you and the words, floating forever. TWO LANGUAGES, TWO DIMENSIONS Play in English or Dutch: each language is its own dimension with its own word atlas. Every solved word comes with a short explanation, so you learn while you play. DAILY STREAKS Keep your streak alive with daily missions and watch your rank rise.
