How to play Hot or Cold?

  1. Guess the word

    Find the hidden 6-letter word in 5 tries. Type any valid word and press Enter.

  2. Hotter or colder?

    Each letter gets a hint. ▲ means the answer's letter comes later in the alphabet, ▼ means it comes earlier, and a tile with no arrow is spot on.

  3. One word a day, or as many as you like

    Everyone gets the same daily word, so you can compete with friends. Free play has endless words, and a hint reveals a letter for a few bonus points.
