How does the hint system work?

Hints cost 25 XP each. When used, a hint reveals one letter in the answer that you have not yet discovered, showing you exactly where it belongs.

You earn XP by making guesses and solving puzzles. XP accumulates across games and can be spent on hints when you need help.

Can I share my results?

Yes. After finishing a puzzle, a share panel lets you copy a spoiler-free result grid showing your guess pattern. You can paste it into messages or social media.

Are the words common English words?

Yes. Answer words are drawn from a curated list of common 5-letter English words. Obscure or archaic words are not used as answers.

Is there a new puzzle every day?

How to Play Word Quest

Objective

Guess the hidden 5-letter word within 6 attempts using color-coded feedback after each guess.

Controls

Type a 5-letter word using the on-screen keyboard or your physical keyboard, then press Enter to submit your guess. Letters change color to show how close you are.

Step by Step

1Enter any valid 5-letter word as your first guess.
2After submitting, each letter is highlighted: green means the letter is correct and in the right position, yellow means the letter is in the word but in the wrong position, and gray means the letter is not in the word.
3Use the feedback to refine your next guess. Eliminate gray letters and reposition yellow ones.
4If you need help, spend XP to reveal a letter using the hint system.
5Continue guessing until you find the word or exhaust all 6 attempts.

Winning

You win by guessing the correct word within 6 tries. The fewer attempts used, the better.

Word Quest Rules

Each guess must be a valid 5-letter English word.
You have a maximum of 6 guesses per puzzle.
Green means the letter is in the correct position.
Yellow means the letter is in the word but in the wrong position.
Gray means the letter is not in the word at all.
Hints cost XP and reveal one unrevealed letter in the answer.

Tips & Strategies

1.Start with a word that uses common letters like E, A, R, S, T. Words like STARE, CRANE, or SLATE cover frequent letters efficiently.

2.Avoid reusing gray letters in subsequent guesses — the on-screen keyboard shows which letters have been eliminated.

3.Place yellow letters in a different position on your next guess. The goal is to find where they belong, not just confirm they exist.

4.If you have several green letters locked in, think of words that fit the known pattern before guessing randomly.

5.Save your hints for when you have narrowed the word down to a few possibilities and need a tiebreaker.
