Ready to climb a word ladder?

Change one letter per step and reach the target word. Every choice is a real word, so spelling will not tell you which one.

All four words are real and all four are one letter away. Only one of them shortens the route.

How to Play

  • See the target

    The word you are aiming at stays on screen the whole way.

  • Change one letter

    Pick the word that leaves you fewer steps than before.

  • Reach it

    Three to five steps, depending on the level.

What It Challenges

  • Vocabulary

    Recognize real words quickly, under a little pressure.

  • Planning

    Look two moves ahead instead of one.

  • Mental search

    Hold the target in mind while you work on where you are.
