About Word Squash
Word Squash is a slightly frantic daily word game about finding hidden targets before a squasher squashes them.
Tiles arrive one at a time. Place them on a 3×3 grid and arrange them to complete the targets. It starts calmly enough, but as the squasher gets faster, every placement matters.
Go for the safe clear, or hold out for a more ambitious move and score bonus points by completing multiple targets at once.
TWO DAILY CHALLENGES
Take on a new Daily Challenge every day, plus a Daily Specialist for something a little more niche.
FIND THE TARGETS
Work out the hidden targets from the tiles you are given, then arrange them correctly on the grid.
THINK FAST
The squasher gets quicker as the game goes on. You can move misplaced tiles, but doing so costs valuable time.
CHASE BIG SCORES
Clear more than one target at once for bonus points, and unlock a bonus target as your score climbs.
TRACK YOUR PROGRESS
See your recent scores, averages and personal bests, then share your result with friends.
LETTERS MODE
Prefer something different? Arrange single letters in a separate set of puzzles.
Word Squash combines word knowledge, spatial puzzle-solving and just enough time pressure to make things slightly frantic.
