About Guess the Word
Guess the Word is a fun game where you have six chances to guess a randomly selected word. Each time you guess, you’re told which of your chosen letters are in the target word, and whether they are in the right place.
It's a straightforward puzzle game that gets out of your way and lets you play. Whether you want a quick five-minute break or a longer session, it runs smoothly on just about any device.
If you want to do well, keep this in mind: Take a screenshot of a tricky board before experimenting, so you can always reset in your head. If the game has a hint button, save it for when you are genuinely blocked, not just slow.
Looking for a quick puzzle fix? Guess the Word streams instantly on Glaze Games — no installs, no logins, no waiting.
