How to play Word Deduction
Try Word Deduction at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Guess the five-letter answer in six attempts. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.
Guess a five-letter answer from the included collection. Entries must contain five letters; accepted guesses are not checked against a complete dictionary.
A careful first round
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Use the example to check your reasoning.
Your goal
Guess the five-letter answer in six attempts. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Take a moment to understand the current position.
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. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
A useful example
An answer containing one E can award only one positive E mark in a guess containing two. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. 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. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
