Four groups, four words each, and a link you can send to anyone. Playing a link somebody sent you is free and always will be.
How to play
- The 16 tiles hide four groups of four related words.
- Select four tiles and press Submit. A right group locks in. A wrong one costs one of your four lives.
- One away means exactly three of your four were a real group.
- Groups run from easy to devious, marked one dot through four. The trap words that fit two groups are the whole game.
- A new puzzle lands at midnight UTC, the same one for everyone, so the grid you share gives nothing away.
About this game
A free daily word-grouping puzzle: sixteen words, four hidden categories, four mistakes allowed. The fun is in the overlaps, the word that obviously belongs to one group until the real group shows up.
