CLOWORDRead in English: Italiano

Guess the hidden word by narrowing the range.

A five-letter word game for iPhone. It plays in more than one language, each with its own dictionary.

Coming soon to the App Store

A round in play: the answer lies between the two bound words, and each number is how many words of the dictionary still separate it from them.(QUIDS, QUILL, QUILT)

// how it plays

  • Every guess becomes a bound.

    Type a real word and it takes a place on the board: above the answer if it comes first in the alphabet, below it if it comes after. The window only ever closes.

  • The number tells you how close you are.

    Each bound shows how many dictionary words still lie between it and the answer. Counted in words rather than letters, so the clue stays sharp right to the last guess.

  • Fifteen guesses a round.

    The row you type in turns green for a real word inside the window, slate for a real word outside it, and red for something that isn't a word. You never learn anything without spending a guess.
