Word Ladder (Words Corner)

Word Ladder is a free browser game on Words Corner, a word finder site built on the public-domain ENABLE word list. It takes the old doublets puzzle and gives it a shared daily pair. Both words are on screen from the start, so the work is finding a route rather than guessing an answer.

Each UTC day brings two dailies, one with four-letter words and one with five. On 8 November 2026 the four-letter ladder ran from LOVE to THEM with a par of 6, and the five-letter one from RINGS to FARES with a par of 5. The day before, the four-letter pair was BOWL to MARK. You tap a letter in the last word of your ladder, pick its replacement from the alphabet below, and press the button to add the new word. The game checks it against its dictionary and refuses a word it does not know or a step that changes more than one letter. Changed letters light up in yellow, so the ladder shows where each step moved. An Undo button takes back the last rung, which helps when a route runs into a dead end.

The page shows the fewest possible steps for each pair, and a ladder finished in exactly that many counts as perfect. Played, solved, best steps and a day streak are kept in your browser only, and a share button copies your result. When the daily is done, Unlimited deals a fresh pair whenever you want one.

The five-letter setting gives a harder search, though the page notes that longer words do not always mean longer routes. It suits anyone who likes a short vocabulary puzzle with a clear goal, and players who already know Weaver will find the same rules with a second length to try.
