About Slovus

Slovus pitches itself to Wordle fans as a new level: instead of letters, you search for the Ukrainian word of the day through meaning, associations and context. Everyone gets the same word each day.

You type Ukrainian words, and the game shows how close each one is to the answer in meaning. Following the closest guesses leads you through related ideas until you land on the word.

Past days are in an archive, and a leaderboard ranks players. It is free in the browser.

It suits Ukrainian speakers who like Contexto-style games.

Each guess gets a closeness score in percent and its rank among the words nearest to the answer, from cold to almost, so the game is about meaning rather than letters. It needs no registration, and a free account adds the archive and leaderboard.
