A FEW POINTERS
Make your next guess count.
Word-O-Witz turns each guess into another clue. Study the word hints and letter feedback, then choose a new guess that tests what you have learned. The daily puzzle gives you a reason to return without turning a quick word break into an endless session.
Playing in your browser
Daily puzzles, the tutorial, Word Vault, collectible badges and Buddy's backyard. Backyard coins, decorations, detailed word history and badges stay in this browser, including when you use website cloud saves for puzzle progress and stats. Just Play rounds that require a rewarded video, and ad-based reveals, are currently unavailable. Phone progress and purchases remain separate. Choose cloud play and set up your leaderboard profile to share rankings and submitted results with the phone app. The first synced daily result counts; replaying on another device cannot replace it.
When two guesses seem equally good
Suppose two possible words fit the clue. Before choosing, compare each one with the feedback from your earlier guesses. Prefer a word that follows what you already know and tests something new. You can hide the on-screen keyboard to review the word list, then bring it back when you are ready. A laptop’s physical keyboard works too; click inside the game first.
Try this
- Start with the tutorial to learn what the feedback means in your chosen mode.
- Read all the clues before guessing. A word that tests new letters can be more useful than repeating the same idea.
- Use the on-screen keyboard on a phone, or click inside the game before typing with your computer keyboard.
