Free Word Guess Game
Guess the 5-letter word in six tries.
What is the Word Guess Game?
Six guesses, one hidden five-letter word, and a grid of color clues — the daily word puzzle became a worldwide habit for good reason. It's the perfect mix of luck, logic and vocabulary.
Here you can play it free and unlimited, a fresh word every round, no waiting for tomorrow.

What does this tool do?
You type five-letter guesses, and after each one the tiles change color: green means the letter is correct and in the right place, amber means it's in the word but elsewhere, and grey means it's not in the word.
Use those clues to close in on the answer within six tries — then play again with a new word.

Tips
- Open with a word rich in vowels and common letters.
- Use your second guess to test new letters, not repeat greens.
- Watch amber letters — they belong elsewhere in the word.
- Mind double letters; a letter can appear twice.
- Keep a mental list of letters ruled out.
- Save risky guesses for when you have spare tries.
- Think of word patterns, not just single letters.
- Don't waste a guess on a word you know is wrong.
Common mistakes to avoid
Reusing grey letters
Fix: Once a letter is grey, drop it from future guesses.
Ignoring amber positions
Fix: An amber letter is in the word but not where you put it — move it.
Forgetting double letters
Fix: Some words repeat a letter; don't rule that out too early.
Wasting the opening guess
Fix: Start with a vowel-heavy word to gather maximum information.
