About

A turn-based word chain for two to four players. You're handed a starting letter and play a valid English word that begins with it — the letter your word ends on becomes the next player's starting letter.

The twist is that ending letters burn out. Once a letter has been landed on, nobody can end on it again (twice over in three- and four-player games), so the easy exits disappear as the game goes on and the board quietly tightens around everyone.

Scoring rewards more than just finding something that fits: letter values, length beyond four characters, rare letters like J, Q, X and Z, using letters nobody has touched, and streak bonuses for consecutive first-try words. You get one pass for the whole game, and play runs seven rounds each.

How to play

  1. Two to four players take turns — there's no solo mode. Play on one device, or open an online lobby with a four-digit passcode.
  2. You're given a starting letter. Play a valid English word of two letters or more that begins with it.
  3. The letter your word ends on becomes the next player's starting letter.
  4. Ending letters burn out. Once one has been used — twice in three- and four-player games — nobody can end on it again.
  5. No repeating a word that has already been played.
  6. Score on letter values, word length, rare letters, letters nobody else has used, and streaks for consecutive first-try words.
  7. You get one pass per game. Play runs seven rounds each.
