Word Trails

Take a quiet moment for a daily word puzzle. In Word Trails, turn one word into another by changing a single letter at each step. Every step must be a real word. Find your own route, try to beat par, or aim for the shortest possible solution. A FRESH CHALLENGE EACH DAY Choose from three, four, five or six letters. Everyone receives the same daily trails, with new puzzles arriving at midnight UTC. Start small or stretch your vocabulary with a longer trail. FAMILIAR ROUTES, ROOM TO EXPLORE Each daily puzzle has a shortest solution using familiar words. A broad English dictionary also gives you room to try less common words. Hints and undo help when you need a little nudge. WATCH YOUR GARDEN GROW Finish trails to earn seeds and collect plants. Build a daily streak, unlock achievement badges, and follow your progress with statistics for each difficulty and results against par. KEEP YOUR FAVOURITE FINISHES Reopen completed trails, revisit your route and share an illustrated result card. A shortest-route finish earns its own acknowledgement.
