About Word Guess Game
Word Guess Game is a browser word puzzle built around a simple idea: make the rules clear enough that each guess feels like a decision, not a mystery about how the game works.
A focused daily puzzle
The daily game asks you to find a five-letter word within six guesses. A separate practice mode gives you room to explore the same rules without changing the daily streak.
The how-to-play guide explains the feedback, including repeated letters. The strategy page offers reasons to choose particular kinds of guesses, not promises about winning.
Words and daily results
Accepted guesses and daily answers come from Alan Beale’s 12dicts lists (package 6.0.2), which he released to the public domain. Daily answers are five-letter words from the 3esl list, with offensive entries removed. Other public-domain lists in that package supply the wider guess list. Read the license note.
A finished daily round is stored on its UTC date. If that date changes while a round is open, the board keeps the earlier puzzle until you load the new one. The current streak is consecutive UTC wins, ending today when today is a win, or yesterday when today is still open. A loss or a missed UTC date ends the streak. An unfinished round is not stored. Practice is stored separately and does not change the streak.
Clarity on and off the board
Letter clues are described with words and symbols as well as color. The distinction between the daily game and practice should stay clear, and information about saved results should be easy to find.
Game history is local to the browser you use. It is not a profile that follows you from one device to another. Read the privacy page for the storage details and your choices.
Help improve the experience
A rejected word, confusing clue or keyboard problem is worth reporting. Tell us what happened and which device or browser you used through the contact page. Avoid including today's answer unless it is necessary to explain the problem.
