The hidden answer is a word square: five five-letter words across whose columns also read as words. Each guessed word is checked against every row, placing correct letters in the grid and listing misplaced letters beside the row they belong to. Guesses are unlimited and the score is the number of guesses needed to fill the grid. Archive puzzles can be unlocked by watching a short ad.
