No timer
Word Unwind is the free game at wordunwind.app, with no timer. It is a daily Boggle-style word hunt, so you can sit with the letters for as long as you like. A lot of daily word hunts rush you.
You don’t need an account, and you don’t need to download anything. Open today’s puzzle and play. The same 5×5 board of everyday words goes to everyone, and it changes at midnight where you are. One star keeps your streak going.
Playing
Swipe through letters that touch, including diagonals.Type a word and press Enter, or drag through letters that touch with the mouse. Diagonals count. Each letter once per word. Words are 3 letters or more, or 4 if you choose that for a board.
Hints light one word a little at a time. You can turn the board a quarter turn, and stars show how much of the list you’ve found. TapClick a word for its meaning, or share the grid. The full rules are on How to play.
Boards and looks
Today’s daily puzzle is free, and the game has no ads. Choosing your own 4×4, 5×5, or 6×6 board, in any word theme, is an optional unlock. Supporter is a one-time unlock for those boards, every look, and past daily puzzles.
Yarn shop, Cat café, and Halloween are free looks. A look changes the colours, tiles, logo, sounds, music, and the burst when a word lands. Signing in is optional. It keeps your games, name, and settings on your other devices.
The iOS app
An iOS app is also named Word Unwind. That one is a timed anagram game: Word Unwind on the App Store. Joshua Carrasco makes this browser game. He does not make that app. If you wanted the word hunt with no timer, you are in the right place.
Who makes it
Joshua Carrasco makes Word Unwind on his own. He started it for his wife, Clarissa, who likes cozy games and cats.
