Guess the hidden word one letter at a time. Six wrong guesses and it is game over.
How to play
- A hidden word is shown as blanks, one for each letter, with a category hint.
- Guess letters using the on-screen A-Z bank or your keyboard.
- A correct letter fills in every place it appears; a wrong letter draws another part of the figure.
- Guess the whole word before six wrong guesses complete the drawing.
Strategy & tips
- Start with common vowels (E, A, O, I) to open up the word.
- Then try frequent consonants like R, S, T, N, and L.
- Use the category hint and revealed letters to guess likely word shapes.
- Look for common endings (-ING, -ED, -TION) once you have a few letters.
- Save risky letters until you are confident — every wrong guess costs you.
FAQ
How many wrong guesses do I get?
