Top players by cumulative score.
No scores yet.
Guess the hidden five-letter word in six attempts, inside five minutes. Every word comes from the domain industry — a live TLD, an ecommerce term, or engineering jargon. The category is shown in the left rail while you play.
Every tile tells you something about that letter:
Type on your keyboard or click the on-screen one. Enter submits, Backspace deletes.
You get one word per day — win or lose, that’s your go. A new puzzle unlocks at 00:00 UTC, and the countdown sits at the bottom of every screen.
The category rotates as you go — a TLD one day, an ecommerce term the next, then engineering jargon, and round again. You walk your own sequence of all 225 words, so no word comes back until every one of them has had its turn, roughly seven months later.
Closing the tab doesn’t pause anything. The clock runs on real time and your guesses are waiting when you return — but if you never come back, the day scores nothing and that word is spent.
Two ways to get yourself out of trouble, both of which cost points:
Both come off the round’s score, and a heavily-assisted day can finish negative — which will pull your leaderboard total down. Spend wisely.
If you solve it:
| Solved on guess | Bonus |
|---|---|
| 1st | 820 |
| 2nd | 620 |
| 3rd | 440 |
| 4th | 280 |
| 5th | 140 |
| 6th | 0 |
A perfect round — first guess, clock untouched — is worth 1,660.
If you don’t: you still score for progress, based on how many guesses you made and how close your best row got. The floor is 40 points before any purchases.
Your score is cumulative — every day’s result adds to your running total, and the board is ranked on that. Your email is your identity, and there’s one entry per address, so your name and company are set the first time you sign in. Your email is never shown on the board.
