How to play Word Deduction
Choose a round of Word Deduction and settle into its rules. Guess the five-letter answer in six attempts. Look at what changes after your first action. Read the objective before making your first input. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
Guess a five-letter answer from the included collection. Entries must contain five letters; accepted guesses are not checked against a complete dictionary.
Focus on one rule
Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal
Guess the five-letter answer in six attempts. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Keep the controls in easy reach.
Step by step
- Enter five letters.
- Green marks the correct position; gold marks an available copy elsewhere.
- Grey means no matching unused copy.
- Use the feedback to solve.
Controls
Type a guess and press Check guess or Enter. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
A useful example
With APPLE as the answer and ALLEE as the guess, the first A and final E are in the right places. The extra L and E are not both counted as present. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Choose a deliberate next step.
Watch out for this
Repeated letters do not imply unlimited copies in the answer. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
