Word Trails

A quiet five letters a day

Word Trails asks for one word a day, in plain everyday English. There is no clock on screen, no score to defend and nothing to sign up for. Each guess tells you which letters belong and where, and every clue is marked with a shape as well as a colour so it stays readable for everyone.

The word is the same for everybody on a given day and changes at midnight where you are. If you leave halfway through, your guesses are still here when you come back.
