  1. Pick a level. Easy has short words and 7 tries, Medium has longer words and 6 tries, and Hard has tricky words and 5 tries.
  2. Read the clue, then tap a letter.
  3. If the letter is in the word, it's written in every blank where it belongs.
  4. If it isn't, the eraser rubs out part of the doodle.
  5. Fill in the whole word to save the doodle and add to your streak.

Controls

  • Tap a letter, or type it on a keyboard.
  • New puzzle gives you a new word.
  • The Sound button turns sound on or off.

Tips

  • Start with vowels: A, E, I, O and U.
  • Next try common letters like T, N, S, R and L.
  • Use the clue! An Animal with three letters and an O in the middle could be DOG or FOX.
  • Look at the length. Long words often end in -ING or -ER.
