Version 3.0 brings adverts for free users, which keeps the daily ladder free to climb. Monthly or lifetime removes every advert. Climb today's ladder and the streak grows. Miss a day and it starts again from one, like a small tragedy. Pass the phone to a friend and settle it on the same ladder. Fewest moves wins. Practice between days. Happy climbing!
One letter at a time. Fewest moves wins. One ladder a day.
Word Ladder is a puzzle you can finish on the train. Start on one word and reach another, changing a single letter at each step. Every rung has to be a real word, so the ladder has to be built, not guessed. Reach the target in as few moves as you can, and as quickly as you can. Everyone plays the same ladder on the same day, so the score you post is a fair one. Come back tomorrow and it is a fresh ladder, with the streak still counting. Free to play: * The daily ladder, the same for everyone * A practice ladder with a fresh shuffle any time * A worldwide board for the day, working offline * Duels: two players, one ladder, one phone * A streak which counts every day in a row * A spoiler-free result image to share with a challenge * Plays offline, with no account needed One plan opens the rest: * Every letter theme, from Marigold to Sage, Rose, Plum and more * The whole daily archive, so any past ladder can be replayed * No adverts at all Word Ladder is free to play and supported by adverts. Monthly or lifetime removes every advert. A hint is always there, and it costs twenty seconds. Practice between days. Take on today's ladder when it lands. Watch the streak build. One letter at a time.
