How our daily groups puzzle works
Sixteen words hide four groups of four. Yellow is the most direct group and purple the trickiest, where the link is usually in the letters or the sound of the words: hidden words, anagrams, rhymes. You get four mistakes, and every puzzle has exactly one solution. Want more? Unlimited groups has a new puzzle every round, and today's word puzzle hints are one click away.
