Overview

Word Race is a fast and fun spelling competition! Each round shows a clue and the first letter: guess the word and type it faster than anyone. Correct answers grow your tower, mistakes shrink it. Lava rises from below: fall beneath it and you're out. The last racer standing wins! Three modes: — Race: 25 rounds and 8 rivals with personality — they rush, scramble letters and blurt out hilarious answers — Blitz: 60 seconds against the lava, with a score multiplier for every answer streak — Daily word: one 5-letter word, 6 tries, the same for everyone Also: — Three difficulty levels, from easy words to brain-teasers — Streak flame: play every day, the reward grows and a chest closes the week — Collect gems on your tower and unlock 10 characters in the wardrobe — Boosters: hint, troll and bomb help you snatch victory — Each mode has its own leaderboard — Cloud save for your progress Play one-handed on your phone or with a keyboard on desktop. Great vocabulary and quick-thinking trainer!

Game instructions

In Race, pick a difficulty and join a match with eight rivals. Each round, read the clue — e.g. "a long-legged bird with a red beak" — check the first letter and the number of blanks, then tap the field below and type your answer. A correct answer makes your tower taller; a mistake or silence makes it shorter. Watch the rising lava: whoever's tower is too low gets eliminated. Blitz gives you 60 seconds: answer without pauses, and a streak of correct answers raises your score multiplier. In Daily word, guess a five-letter word in six tries: a green letter is in the right spot, a yellow one is in the word but elsewhere. Collect gems hovering above your tower and unlock characters in the wardrobe. Boosters on the right: Hint reveals letters, Troll spoils a rival's answer, Bomb wrecks the leader's tower. Controls: keyboard and mouse on desktop, touch and on-screen keyboard on mobile. Opponents are controlled by the game.
