About this game

Right now, somewhere in the world, thousands of people are staring at exactly the same sixteen letters you are.

Wordsmith runs on one global clock. Every 2.5 minutes a brand-new board goes live, and every player on Earth gets that identical board — same letters, same layout, same two minutes to play it. No matchmaking, no waiting your turn. You open the app and you are already inside the round that is happening.

HOW IT WORKS
• Drag across touching letters — up, down, sideways, diagonally — to trace a word
• Words run from 4 to 10 letters
• Length pays: a 4-letter word scores 3, a 10-letter word scores 57
• Every board hides 30 to 40 findable words, and at least one of them is 9 letters or longer
• Chain finds back to back for NICE, GREAT, AMAZING, ON FIRE, UNSTOPPABLE and LEGENDARY

TWO WAYS TO PLAY
• Classic — a free hunt across the whole board, at full points
• Quest — a 20-target ladder split into five timed stages, from 4-letter words up to 8 and beyond. Fewer points, far more pressure

COMPETE
• A live leaderboard closes out every round while the next board loads
• Global rankings for Today, This Week, This Month, This Year and All Time
• Yesterday's champion — and last week's, last month's and last year's — gets a card on your home screen
• Play Games: 74 achievements and the Best Round Score leaderboard, unlocked as you play

KEEP PROGRESSING
• 144 achievements, from your first four-letter word to a perfect 400-point round
• Levels and XP that climb with every round you finish
• Streaks tracking how many rounds in a row you have stayed above your own bar

LEARN AS YOU GO
Tap any word you found during the round review and read what it actually means. Real dictionary definitions, in your language.

16 LANGUAGES, 16 DICTIONARIES
English, Turkish, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, Indonesian, Russian, Polish, Dutch, Ukrainian, Swedish, Danish, Finnish and Norwegian — each with its own native word list, not a translated one.

• Start instantly as a guest, sign in with Apple or Google later and keep everything
• Light, dark and system themes, colour palettes and board fonts

WORDSMITH PRO

• Every theme colour, plus a Pro badge beside your name on the leaderboards

The next board goes live in under two and a half minutes. See you in it.
One board. Every player on Earth. A new 2.5-minute round, right now.

What’s new

A whole new way to play: the Levels campaign.

• An untimed crossword campaign, with 200 hand-built levels in every one of the 16 languages. No clock, no rush — trace the target words into the crossword and move on when you are ready.
• Every other word you find on the board is a bonus. Tap it to read what it means, and watch it fill your hint jar.
• Stuck? Spend a hint on a random letter, or take the hammer to the exact cell you choose.
• Clear a pack of levels and you collect a photograph —...
