How to Play Daily Word Guess

• Guess the hidden five-letter word in six tries.
• Type a real five-letter word and press Enter (or tap Enter on the on-screen keyboard) to submit it.
• After each guess, every letter's tile changes colour: green means that letter is in the correct spot, yellow means it's in the word but the wrong spot, and grey means it isn't in the word at all.
• Use those colours to narrow down your next guess. A new word is available every day.

Daily vs Practice Mode

Daily mode gives everyone the same word each day, and your result contributes to your streak and statistics. Practice mode lets you play as many extra rounds as you like with a random word each time - a great way to warm up or keep playing after finishing the daily word, without touching your daily streak or stats.

Tips for Daily Word Guess

• A strong opening guess uses several different, common letters to gather as much colour feedback as possible.
• A yellow tile means try that letter again in a different spot - not that it should be left out entirely.
• Words can repeat a letter, so don't rule a letter out completely just because one occurrence of it came back grey while another instance was green or yellow.
