Trailer
Real Wordy Bunch footage, editorial motion, and in-game sound.
How it plays
Trace adjacent letters, release to submit, and build a score before the timer expires.
Every letter can connect to any touching tile, including diagonals.
Short words keep momentum. Long words break the round open.
Players share the same board, so the result comes down to pattern recognition.
Daily challenge
One regional puzzle, one streak, one clean result to share. Streak Shields soften a missed day without turning the habit into a punishment.
Duels
Pick a friend, a player near your rank, or someone from today's Daily, and play two minutes on a board. They have 48 hours to answer on the same board, then both word lists and the rating change are revealed. Open Duels set one score for everyone to beat over 24 hours. Duels and live ranked games share one rating.
Weekly Arena
Enter from Friday and play one 90-second qualifier over the weekend. Your score seeds you into a bracket, then you face one opponent a day on the same board. Every bracket's results are revealed together on Friday, with titles, badges and a ring for the winner.
Leagues
Start a private league, share one code, and everyone plays the same daily board. A fresh monthly table keeps the rivalry going, and the game builds a share card you can drop into any chat.
Campaign
Six worlds and 306 levels are free, from Whispering Forest to Northern Glacier. Beyond the Horizon, a one-time purchase (£5.99 in the UK), adds six more worlds and 300 levels, from Mirage Dunes to Starfall Summit. Six Secret Boards are hidden along the way, three in the free worlds and three in the expansion. Every level has one of ten objective types, from target scores and perfect paths to pangrams and required-letter runs.
Modes
Find a live opponent and climb the seven-tier ladder from Bronze to Legend.
Create a four-letter room, invite friends, and play the same board in real time.
Tune board size, time, minimum word length, and bot mix without touching your rating.
Free to play. No ads. Nothing you can buy helps you win against other players.
One fixed board with its own leaderboard. In Speed Trace you trace the routes the game shows you against the clock. Steady Trace has no clock.
Replay any past Daily board, timed or untimed. It never changes your scores, streak or rating.
Widgets carry your streak and a Word of the Day. A live match follows you to the lock screen and Dynamic Island, or a notification on Android.
VoiceOver reads the board, tap to select letters replaces dragging, and Larger Text and Reduce Motion are respected.
iMessage Word Duel
Send a duel straight into an iMessage thread. Take on one friend head to head, or a whole group chat racing the same board. Everyone plays their turn inside Messages, and the game keeps score and calls the winner.
Also on Reddit
Wordy Bunch has a separate, Reddit-native edition that plays right inside a post. You get a fresh daily board and your community's own leaderboard, with nothing to download. It's its own project, built for Reddit.
Also on Discord
Wordy Bunch runs as a Discord activity too. Your server gets its own daily board with a channel leaderboard, and you can race friends in live rounds without leaving Discord. Join our official server to play it, share results, and talk strategy with other players.
Privacy
Wordy Bunch uses anonymous sign-in by default and collects the game data needed to run the game: profile, region, friends, presence, stats and match results, plus crash reports and anonymous usage counts. Email only if you choose to link a sign-in.
