Fonix: Sound It Out

Fonix (not a typo) is a word game about sounding it out. Every puzzle is a real word, re-spelled so each chunk of letters makes a sound it makes in other words. Read it aloud and you'll hear it. Take "ghilltre": "gh" like in laugh, "re" like in acre… it's filter. Some are a gentle warm-up. Some are gloriously fiendish. Every one of them clicks the moment you say it out loud. • 1,500 puzzles across three difficulty tiers, every one checked to be soundable • A shared Daily Puzzle: the same word for everyone, unless you have already solved it • Weekend Hard Mode: one hard word for everyone all weekend, and a badge if you solve it with no hints • Read It Aloud, a party mode: one person reads a word out loud exactly as it's spelled, and the room guesses by ear. 2 to 4 teams, free for everyone • Speed Round, a solo sprint: sound out as many easy words as you can in 60 seconds and try to beat your best score. Free for everyone, and it never uses up your free puzzles • Widgets for your Home Screen and Lock Screen: today's word, the weekend word and your streak at a glance, free for everyone • Your progress backs up to iCloud, so your streak and every solved word come back after a reinstall and follow you to your iPad • Sound it out your own way: any word that fits the sounds counts as correct • A smart hint ladder when you're stuck, plus a "give up & reveal" whenever you need it • Tap "Hear it" to listen to the answer • A satisfying reveal that breaks every word into its sounds • No ads, no accounts, no tracking Play free: sound out 10 puzzles in every difficulty, plus the daily puzzle, Weekend Hard Mode, Read It Aloud and Speed Round. Unlock Fonix Plus once for unlimited puzzles, unlimited hints, full stats, and extra themes. One purchase, yours forever. Inspired by a game played around the dinner table (thanks, Justin). See how fast you can hear the word.
