KinWord

A daily word game with a few quiet twists.

Guess hidden words, solve riddles, race friends — a few minutes a day.

A small daily ritual

Four gentle modes. A few quiet minutes a day to sharpen your mind.

Solo, or with the people you love

Play alone for focus, or open a live room for friends and family.

the original modes

KinWordClassics

Two ways to find the hidden word.

Open puzzle, or with a one-line clue from the start.

Guess

5 tries. No clue — read the colors, narrow the field, find the word.

Riddle

3 tries. The puzzle comes with a short clue at the top — fewer guesses, faster path.

stuck mid-game?

Use a hint or a gift.

Two small lifelines for the moments you need them.

One reveals letters. The other helps on your final guess.

Hint

Reveal a correct letter, or gray out keys you don't need. Costs one row in Guess. Free in Riddle, once per game.

Gift

On your last try only — get a synonym, antonym, or short hint about the word. Free, once per game.

what you take with you

Definitions & quotes.

Every game leaves you with something.

“Wonder is the beginning of wisdom.”

— Socrates

Swipe to define. Read the closing quote.

Swipe rows for meanings

Pull any submitted row sideways to open its dictionary entry.

A quote on every game

Win or lose, a short hand-picked line closes each round.

A tiny studio building cozy games — starting with words.

Pick a mood, pick a mode

Guess

Five chances · find the hidden word

Color-coded feedback for each letter. Use hints or give up anytime. Swipe for definitions.

Every letter you place paints a clue in blue, gold, or dark.

A bulb to light the way, a gift on your final breath.

Riddle

A riddle whispers · three tries to answer

A riddle hints at the word. One free letter reveal. Wordplay clues in definitions.

A verse at the top, a mystery to untangle.

One spark of light when the shadows feel too deep.

Spark

Five timed puzzles a day — the same five for everyone.

Two fours, two fives, one longer word — shuffled each day. Score blends accuracy with a time bonus. Monthly and all-time boards; one honest attempt per day.

The flame counts down while you hunt five words at speed.

Same puzzles worldwide — when you finish, the leaderboard remembers.

Multiplayer

Play with friends & family.

Create a room or join with a code. Everyone plays the same puzzle in real time — Guess or Riddle rules, host picks difficulty and rounds. Between games, see how everyone stacked up.

One room, one word — no passing the phone, no waiting your turn.

The network lights up; when the tiles settle, the leaderboard remembers.

Built with care

The details we obsessed over so the game feels effortless.

  • Daily, not desperate

    One game a day, with optional bonus modes. We won't push you into endless streaks or notifications.

  • Hints that respect you

    Reveal a letter or gray out impossibilities — your choice. No game-ending punishment for asking.

  • Plays offline

    Words and definitions sync to your device. The puzzle works on a plane, on the metro, anywhere.

  • Friends, not feeds

    Add friends with a code. Send invites, compare results, race in multiplayer rooms — no public profile required.
