Word games test your vocabulary and spelling: guessing a hidden word, finding words in a grid, linking clues, or racing other players to spell first. Many are daily puzzles, with the same challenge for everyone each day, and a few are party games played with friends online. They take a few minutes, need only a keyboard or a tap, and suit anyone who likes puzzles that use words instead of numbers.
Foundplay lists 17 word games, every one an original game that its creator hosts on their own site, so Play takes you straight to them. After Poople, Words of Word and Skribbl.io, the most played are Wordle, Tiny Puzzle and CLAUDING // VERB_HUNTER. The newest ones are Bookends and Word Peaks.
