About this game

Word Game 2026 is built around tracing words through a set of letters. You drag across the letters in the right sequence, moving between neighbouring ones, and each hidden word you trace counts as found. The developer says letters can be joined in any direction.

There are more than 1,000 levels. They are described as ranging from classic word searches to crossword-style challenges, and they are set against backgrounds themed on locations around the world, with new scenery appearing as you progress. The developer calls the whole thing a crossword adventure and pitches it as relaxing.

No time limits apply, so each puzzle can take as long as you like. When you get stuck, there are two kinds of help listed: a hint, or a shuffle that rearranges the letters to give you a fresh look at them. The developer also says it can be played online or offline.

How to play

Put your finger on the first letter of a word and drag across the connected letters in order, swiping smoothly from one adjacent letter to the next. Each correct sequence reveals one of the hidden words. Keep finding words to solve the puzzle. If you run dry, use a hint or shuffle the letters, and take as long as you need.

Controls

Touch

  • Drag your finger across adjacent letters to form a word

Tips

Letters link to their neighbours, so trace the path with your eyes before you start dragging. With no time limit, there is no pressure to rush while you study the letters, and a shuffle can make a word you have been staring past easier to spot. Keep hints for words that still will not come after a shuffle or two.
