Daily Word
Find today’s hidden word. Every guess shows you which letters are in it.
How to play Daily Word
There’s a hidden word for each length every day: 5 letters in 6 guesses, 6 letters in 6 guesses and 7 letters in 7 guesses. Pick a length and start guessing.
- Type any real word of the right length and press Enter.
- B Blue: the letter is in the word, in that exact spot.
- O Orange: the letter is in the word, but in a different spot.
- G Grey: the letter isn’t in the word (or not that many times).
- The keyboard keeps track of everything you’ve found.
There’s no clock. Take your time: only the number of guesses counts. A new set of words arrives at midnight, and everyone gets the same words on the same day.
A daily word game in three sizes
Daily Word is a free word guessing game you can play in your browser on a phone, tablet or computer, with nothing to download. Warm up with five letters, then stretch to six and seven. Each length keeps its own streak, win rate and guess chart, and you can share a spoiler-free grid of coloured squares with friends.
Tips
- Open with a word full of common letters, like E, A, R, T, S and O.
- Repeated letters count: if a letter shows once but the word has two, the second copy stays grey.
- Longer words often end in familiar patterns (‑ION, ‑ENT, ‑ATE, ‑URE). Try them when you’re stuck.
- Turn on hard mode for a tougher game: every clue you find has to be used.
