How to play Word Guess
Each round shows the five letters of a real word — scrambled. Tap tiles (or type) to build the answer in the slots. Get it right to score points; solve quickly and chain solves to grow a combo multiplier. Daily Pulse gives everyone the same eight words. Blitz is a 75-second score attack, Surge is endless with three lives, and Zen is untimed practice.

Tips & strategy
- Spot common patterns first — -ING, -ED, SH-, TH-, and double letters jump out once you group the tiles.
- Protect your combo: a miss resets the multiplier, so shuffle or hint before a risky submit in Blitz and Surge.
- Speed bonuses kick in under a few seconds — on Daily Pulse, a clean fast run beats a slow perfect more often than you think.
Word Guess FAQ
Is Daily Pulse the same for all players?
Yes — the eight words are seeded from the date, so everyone races the same set. Your best score and streak save on your device.
Can I play more than once a day?
Yes. Replay Daily for a higher score anytime, or jump into unlimited Blitz, Surge and Zen.
Is this a hidden-word colour-grid game?
No. Word Guess is an unscramble-and-combo scorer — you always see the letters, and the skill is speed, pattern recognition and keeping the chain alive.
