Online word games
If you like letters more than lasers, start here. These games work with words, spelling and quick recall.
The word games
- Anagram Sprint: unscramble a jumble of letters. Words grow from three to eight letters.
- Word Chain: each word starts with the last letter of the one before. A golden letter gives a big bonus.
Quizzes that use words
- Capital Cities Flight: the capital of each country, with trap answers like Sydney.
- Flag Quiz Dash: name the country from its flag.
Tips for better word play
- Look for common endings, like ING, ED and ER, in an anagram.
- In a word chain, finish on letters that are easy to start from, like S, E and T.
- Keep going. Every solved word adds time.
