Word Scramble (Puzzleship)
Unscramble four words by swapping letters, with green showing what is right.
Every day: Six Word Scramble puzzles a day, each with a different style of clue and the same for everyone: unscramble four clued words by swapping two letters at a time; past days are in an archive. New puzzle: Midnight in your own time zone, as the site states.
Word Scramble gives you four jumbled words and clues, and you fix them by swapping two letters at a time. A letter turns green and locks the moment it reaches its right spot, so you can make progress before you know the word. Six daily puzzles differ in how they clue the answers.
About Word Scramble (Puzzleship)
Because feedback comes letter by letter, you can test an arrangement without knowing the answer and let the green tiles confirm it. Every word starts fully scrambled. Placing vowels sensibly and keeping pairs like QU, TH and CH together often reveals a word before the clue does.
The six daily tabs differ in the clue. Mix names only each word's category, such as Birds. Clues gives a proper definition. One Clue gives one theme for all four words and nothing else, the hardest mode. Two Clues joins two meanings with or, Associations gives three related words such as Burrow, Nocturnal and Snout for AARDVARK, and Thematic gives a theme plus a clue for each word.
Puzzleship publishes six Word Scramble puzzles a day, one in each clue style. Each day's puzzles are numbered and dated, the same for every player, and appear at midnight in your own time zone; earlier days stay playable in the archive. The site is free with ads, and a premium plan removes them.
