Smord
v1.10.3 · updated this weekfree
The word game for smart people — every guess coloured by how many letters you've found, not where they sit. Android.
Most word games tell you which letters are right. This one tells you how many you've found.
Guess any 5-letter word and the row is coloured by how many letters it shares with the answer — wherever those letters sit. Seven steps, dark grey through to blue. The one before blue is the hard one: every letter right, every letter in the wrong place.
How it plays
01
Guess a 5-letter word
Scored by how many letters you share with the answer, regardless of position.
02
Read the colour
Seven steps from dark grey to blue. More letters found, further up the scale.
03
Close it out
Unlimited guesses, a keyboard you can mark up yourself, and a hint after ten tries.
Features
Seven-colour feedback from dark grey (no match) to blue (solved) — scored by how many letters you share with the answer, wherever they sit
Unlimited guesses, with no daily failure state
Hints after 10 attempts that reveal and lock a letter
Your three closest guesses, tracked as you play
A keyboard you can colour-mark by hand — letters proved wrong lock themselves
An interactive tutorial
Accounts — sign in with Google, or keep playing anonymously. Optional, never required to play
Daily Challenge — one shared word a day for everyone, with a streak. Works offline; the schedule is prefetched
Custom multiplayer rooms — share a code, 2 to 15 players, several matches per room, everyone racing the same word
Match scoring on a 10/8/6/5/4/3/2/1 scale, a 15-minute cap per match, and a 2-minute grace period once someone solves it
Leaderboards — fewest attempts and fastest time, for this week, this month and all time
Your Stats — games played, solve rate, average attempts and time, personal bests, guess distribution, daily streak
Dark mode
Sound effects, with a mute toggle
Share cards for a solo win, a daily result or a custom match — the daily card never reveals the word
Difficulty insight — after solving, see how your attempt count compares with everyone else's on that word
Account deletion in-app, plus a data-collection opt-out in settings
