Squaredle

What exactly is a Squaredle?

Squaredle is a word-formation game in which players must swipe and connect letters on a grid to form correct words. The word must have at least four letters. The goal of the game is to find the last word.

Rules of the Game

The game is shown on a 4x4 grid. When you first start the game, you will see a grid of four random letters. You must connect letters to form a valid word. When you find a valid word, new letters will appear at random. If you come across a valid term that isn't in the solution, it will be considered a bonus word. While the extra word will not increase your score, it will help you break ties on the leaderboard. The grids will fill up with letters as the game progresses. And your goal is to have the last word.

The goal is to turn all of the tiles green by dragging a tile horizontally or vertically and swapping it with another (do not drag and exchange tiles diagonally).

When all of the tiles in a column or row are green, the letters form a word from Webster's online dictionary.

To earn the most points, try to match the target number of swaps. There is a separate goal for simple and difficult games, and the goal changes every day - easier games are at the start of the week, with the Squaredle 'week' beginning on a Sunday.

• In the first grid, a green tile contains the correct letter.
• An amber tile indicates that the letter could be switched with a non-green tile in the same vertical column or horizontal row.
• A yellow tile indicates that the letter may fill one of the non-green spots in the same vertical column and horizontal row.
• A white tile indicates that the letter cannot occupy a non-green area in the same vertical column or horizontal row.
