Start with a rack
Every player sees the same letter tiles, including a blank that can represent the letter needed to complete a valid word.
How the word ladder grows
Meet the round length
Each round asks for words of a particular length. Later rounds increase the challenge by requiring longer answers.
Keep searching
Submit a word, pass the turn, or use NIL when you believe no solutions remain. Correct words score and errors cost a point.
Practice or compete
Play against another person, choose a bot, or take a self challenge and try to uncover every available solution. Completed-round review shows what was found and what remained.
Tip: shuffle the rack to see familiar letter groups from a fresh angle. The letters change position, but the puzzle stays the same.
