WORD GAME GUIDE
How to Play Four Word Guess: Rules and Scoring
Solve four five-letter words in nine shared guesses. Each guess gives different clues on each board.
Controls and allowed moves
Enter a five-letter word and select Guess. Green with a check means the letter is in the right place. Yellow with a tilde means a different position. Gray with an × means there is no additional match. Solved boards stop updating.
Solving strategy
Use the first few guesses to learn letters across several boards. Once one board has enough evidence for an answer, solving it also tests those letters on every board still open.
Worked example
If PLANT gives a green P on board 1 and a yellow T on board 3, board 1 starts with P. Board 3 contains T somewhere other than the last position.
Common mistakes
Keep feedback separate by board. A gray P on board 2 does not cancel the green P on board 1. Count repeated letters within a single row before ruling them out.
Daily score calculation
Each solved board earns 250 points. Solving all four earns 1,000. An accepted guess uses one turn across the whole game, even if that guess solves a board.
