How to play Word Guess

Find the hidden word in six tries. The tiles tell you how close you are.

The rules

1. Guess the hidden word in 6 tries.
2. Each guess must be a real word of the right length.
3. After each guess the tiles change: a dark blue square is the right letter in the right spot, a light blue circle is in the word but in a different spot, and a faded tile with a dashed edge is not in the word.

How to get started

1. Type any real word of the right length and press Enter.
2. Read the tiles. Dark blue squares stay where they are; light blue circles belong somewhere else.
3. Leave out faded letters: they are not in the word.
4. Make your next guess test new common letters while keeping what you know.
5. Ask the coach which letters are worth testing next.

A tip

Start with a word that uses common letters such as E, A, R, T, O, and S, with no repeats.
