Daily Word game · [Play Break 5](https://break5.co.uk/) · <https://dledex.com/games/break-5>

A five-letter word ladder: starting from one word, each move changes a single letter to form another real English word until the target is reached. Par is the shortest route using common words, finishing inside five minutes earns a badge, and a hard mode removes undo and hints. Practice puzzles, an archive and a members' leaderboard are offered.
