A kid-friendly word guessing game: six tries to find a five-letter word, with colored letters after every guess. Word of the day, practice by topic and hints.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a new word every day?
Yes. Word of the day is the same for everyone and changes at midnight. After it, you can keep playing in endless practice or try the marathon.
Do my guesses have to be real words?
No. Any five letters count as a guess, so younger players are never stuck. Real words still give the most useful clues.
