Word of the Day is a free daily word guessing game — a browser-based alternative to Wordle® with one twist players keep asking for: when the daily puzzle is done, unlimited practice mode lets you keep playing as many rounds as you like.
Everyone gets the same daily word, which rolls over at your local midnight. Guess it in five tries, keep your streak alive, check your stats, and share your result as a spoiler-free emoji grid.
Yes — it works the way fans of Wordle® expect, with a shared daily five-letter puzzle, plus an unlimited practice mode so you never have to wait until tomorrow for another round.
At midnight in your local time zone, so the puzzle never switches mid-evening.
Five guesses for a five-letter word.
Yes — after you finish, share a spoiler-free emoji grid of your guesses to compare with friends.
Completely free, no download and no signup, on desktop or phone.
