Word Wheel

Eight letters — seven on the wheel, one in the amber centre — and as many words as you can wring out of them. There’s no timer and no way to lose: just a score, a Genius mark to chase, and one wheel shared by everyone, fresh at midnight UTC.

1. 1

   Build words

   Tap letters on the wheel or simply type. Words must be at least four letters long, and you can reuse any letter as often as you like — the wheel shows which letters are allowed, not how many times.
2. 2

   Always use the centre

   Every word must contain the amber centre letter. That single rule does most of the pruning: with A in the centre below, RATING counts but TIGER doesn’t — all its letters are on the wheel, yet no A.

   TRINGLEA

   This wheel hides GAIN, ALIGN, RATING… and one word that uses all eight letters.

3. 3

   Score points

   Short words keep you moving; long ones move the needle. A word using all eight letters is a pangram and earns a +8 bonus on top of its length — every wheel has at least one.

   Reach Genius

   Your score is measured against the wheel’s maximum: clear seventy percent of it and the day is a Genius. Find every word and it ends on a Full Wheel. Progress saves on its own, so you can graze all day — and the day’s best score keeps yours honest.
