Five Letters

About Five Letters

Five Letters is a daily word puzzle in the spirit of the guessing game everyone was sharing a few years ago: one secret five-letter word, six tries to find it. Type any real five-letter word and press Enter. Each letter then flips over to give you a clue: green means the letter is in the word and in exactly the right spot, yellow means it is in the word but somewhere else, and grey means it is not in the word at all. Use those clues to narrow it down with every guess. Repeated letters are handled just like in the original game, so a yellow or green really tells you how many times a letter appears. Every day there is a new daily word, the same for everyone, so you can compare results with friends and family: when you finish, share your result as a grid of coloured squares that gives away your progress without spoiling the answer. The game keeps your statistics: games played, win percentage, your current and best streak, and a chart of how many guesses you usually need, so there is a reason to come back every day. Want more than one puzzle a day? Practice mode gives you unlimited random words to sharpen your skills. Five Letters is a great way to build vocabulary and logical thinking, takes just a few minutes, and works in your browser on phones, tablets and computers with the on-screen keyboard or a real one. It is completely free.
