Every day at midnight UTC, a new board is generated and shared by all players worldwide. You have 24 hours to play it and submit your best score. Results are visible on the global leaderboard. Your daily streak tracks how many consecutive days you've played.
In a PvP match, both players receive the same board. You play when you're ready — there's no live session. Each player has 24 hours per turn. When both players have submitted their words, scores are compared and a winner is determined.
Labyrinth is a dungeon-crawl mode with 15 sequential rooms of procedurally generated boards. Each room is harder than the last. You spend lives (which regenerate over time) to enter. Rare cosmetics and big coin rewards await players who make it through.
Zen Mode and Classic Mode work fully offline. Daily Board, Daily Puzzle, and PvP require an internet connection. Your offline scores sync automatically when you reconnect.
Coins are earned by playing (bonus coins for long words, daily streaks, and leaderboard placements). Coins are spent on powerups in-game and cosmetic items in the shop. Coin packs can also be purchased via In-App Purchase.
