> Shrink words letter by letter to a phrase.

Daily Word game · [Play Shrinkle](https://www.shrinkle.org/) · <https://dledex.com/games/shrinkle>

Several starting words must each be reduced one letter at a time, with every intermediate step forming a valid word, until the remaining words spell a hidden phrase. Valid but off-route words are flagged so the player can try another path, errors are counted in the stats, and earlier puzzles are available in an archive.
