Word of the day
The word to find is the title of a one-word Wikipedia article, five to eight letters long. You have six tries. After each guess, every letter changes colour: in the right spot, somewhere else in the word, or not in it at all. Accents and hyphens do not count, just type the letters. The word’s theme is given from the start to guide you, and if you are stuck, the article’s definition, with the word hidden, appears after your third missed try. Once the game is over, the word is revealed with a link to the article to learn more (if you lose, you need an account to see it). The word changes every day at midnight (UTC) and is the same for everyone: share your number of tries without spoiling the surprise. Two ways to play Word of the day: the daily challenge, the same puzzle for everyone, renewed every day at midnight (UTC), one game per day, with a day streak and coins to win; and free play, unlimited, where a new puzzle is drawn for every game, with no reward, so you can practise as much as you like. In free play, the solution is always shown at the end.
