What is this game?
Daily Letter Hunt is a solo word puzzle with dated daily challenges for Hunt 5, Hunt 6, and Hunt 7, plus unlimited extra words. Each guessed letter shows whether it is in the right spot, in the word elsewhere, or not used in the answer.
How to play
- 1Choose Hunt 5, Hunt 6, or Hunt 7 and enter a guess with that many letters.
- 2Read each letter tile: right spot means correct position, in word means present elsewhere, and miss means not in the word.
- 3Use the vertical guess history to narrow the hidden answer.
- 4Finish in six guesses or fewer, then play another word whenever you want.
Rules
- There is one dated daily challenge per word length each day for local stats and streaks.
- After finishing the daily challenge, you can play extra Letter Hunt words without waiting for tomorrow.
- You get up to 6 guesses.
- Every guess must be a real word with the correct word length.
Scoring

- The dated daily challenge and extra words both update local played games, wins, streaks, and win distribution in this browser.
