What it does
01
The climb
Five rounds make a game. The first word is three letters, and every round adds one, up to seven. Miss a word or run out of time and the climb ends there.
02
Finish it and you have a time
Finish all five and your time becomes your record to beat.
03
Tap, or drag
Tap a tile and it drops into the first empty slot from the left. Or pick one up and let go near a slot to aim it.
04
Learn another language
Play in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese or Japanese. Each answer comes with its meaning in your own language, so a new word sticks.
05
On your device
Puzzles are built by Apple's on-device model on your iPhone, iPad or Mac. While you play, your topic never leaves the device, and there is nothing to sign up for. Only if you rate the puzzles at the end is that rating sent anonymously, to make them better.
Made for iPhone Duo
Open it halfway like a notebook: the answer slots on the upper screen, your letter tiles on the lower one.
Half open
Answer slots above, tiles and buttons below, with nothing on the fold. Tiles can be dragged across the fold or tapped into place.
Fully open
The large inner display plays with full-size tiles, upright and on its side.
Closed
The outer display runs the regular iPhone game.
Requirements
Requires iOS 26 or later on a device with Apple Intelligence turned on. A Mac version ships alongside it.
