Bonus words of 4 or more letters score extra points. Only the three answers finish the dig.

Bonus finds: 0 words · 0 points

How bonus finds work

Only words accepted by the game’s bonus vocabulary count; some dictionary words do not. The game checks each path when online. Offline attempts before the third answer are saved for checking after you reconnect. Build a word of 4 or more letters through touching tiles. After the third answer, choose Keep digging to reopen the board for bonus words. Diagonals count, and you can’t reuse a tile in the same word.

Points by length: 4 letters = 1; 5 = 2; 6 = 3; 7 = 5; 8+ = 11.

Each bonus word counts once. Bonus points appear in your share result, and bonus finds count toward bonus-word badges. Only the three answers finish the dig.

Bonus words (0)

No bonus words yet. Trace any word on the board to add one.

Choose a word to see its path on the board.

Stuck? Get a hint2 free / word

Each hidden word has its own clue, then up to two free starting letters, one at a time. More letters are optional and use your Plus monthly allowance or letter credits. Hinted tiles use the color of their word's clue and are numbered in route order; shared tiles show each word's marker. Choose a hint button to reveal help. Keyboard: Tab to a hint button, then press Enter or Space. Hints affect Clean Sweep only; other rewards still count.

    Tap or click adjacent letters in order to spell any of the three clue answers. Paths can zigzag (diagonals count); a tile can be shared across answers but used once per path. Find other accepted words for bonus points, before or after your third answer. In NVDA, press NVDA+Space to switch to Focus mode so the arrow keys control the board.

    How to play
    1. Read the clueSolve any one of the three related answers, each at least four letters long.
    2. Build a letter pathTap or swipe touching squares forward or backward. Diagonals count, and matching tiles can be shared between words.
    3. Keep diggingOne answer completes the quick dig; all three complete the full dig. Spell other accepted words of 4+ letters for bonus points, and choose Keep digging after the full dig to find more. Each counts once: 1 point (4 letters), 2 (5), 3 (6), 5 (7), or 11 (8+).

    Keyboard: Tab visits every letter. Arrows move up, down, left, or right; Shift+↑ moves ↖, Shift+→ moves ↗, Shift+↓ moves ↘, and Shift+← moves ↙. Space or Enter activates the focused tile; Backspace removes the last letter; Escape clears the path.

    NVDA: Press NVDA+Space to switch to Focus mode so the arrow keys control the board.

    Bonus finds are checked against the game’s own word list; some dictionary words do not count. The game checks each path when online. Offline attempts are saved for checking after you reconnect.

    Try counts include answer finds and rejected answer paths; bonus words and repeat finds do not add tries. Daily and Plus boards both count. Streaks follow UTC release dates; archive solves count toward totals but cannot restore a missed daily streak.

    Badge cabinetFinds, wordcraft, weekly achievements, and invites 0/40 badges · 0/7 ranks

    Archive puzzles count, missed days never erase progress, and release-day badges count a full dig on its release date (UTC) without requiring a streak. Seven ranks keep growing with no top tier; each counts the work you do, not a daily streak. Epic badges appear once you are on their path and count only boards finished on their release date. Invite badges count new players once they finish boards on two different days, and friend badges count players who follow you back.
