Daily Parlor
Sprout
Grow today's seed into the longest word you can, one letter at a time.
How to play
A daily word game in the spirit of a word ladder. Start from a short seed word and add one letter at a time, anywhere in the word: the front, the middle or the end. Each step has to make a new word, like AT, CAT, CART, CHART. No rearranging, and three misses and it wilts. Your score is the length of the longest word you grow, so a big vocabulary helps.
- Free. No sign-up to play.
- A new puzzle at midnight, wherever you are.
- Build a daily streak and share your score.
