How to Play
Word Chain gives you a starting word. Your next word must begin with the last letter of the current word, so after CAT you could play TREE. Each round shows several candidate words, but some of them do not actually fit the chain, so read every option before tapping. A correct pick scores points for its length and starts a short countdown for the next link; a wrong pick or a timer that runs out costs one of your three lives. The run ends when the third miss lands, so favor words with common endings that keep many follow-ups alive.
Controls
- Tap a word that starts with the required letter
- Beat the countdown on every link
Tips & Tricks
- 1Some options deliberately break the chain, so read carefully
- 2Words ending in E, S, or Y keep the most doors open
- 3Longer words score more, but only if they fit
- 4Read every candidate before tapping — one of the options deliberately breaks the chain
- 5Take the safe short word when the clock is low; a guaranteed link is worth more than a risky long one
Frequently Asked Questions
How does scoring work?
Each accepted word adds points equal to its length. A wrong pick or a timeout costs a life, and three misses end the run.
What makes a word valid?
The next word must begin with the last letter of the current one, so CAT can be followed by TREE.
How do I lose?
A wrong pick or a timer that runs out costs one of three lives, and the run ends on the third miss.
Are all the options valid?
No — several candidate words do not fit the chain, so check the first letter before you tap.
How is the score worked out?
A correct pick scores points for its length and starts a short countdown for the next link.
