Word Ladder Game - Lexirung

Lexirung is a word ladder game with three fresh puzzles every day. Turn the bottom word into the top word by changing one letter at a time, and every step on the way has to be a real English word. COLD becomes WARM in four rungs: COLD, CORD, WORD, WARD, WARM.

What makes Lexirung different: you can build your ladder from both ends. Add words upward from the start word or downward from the target word, whichever end looks easier. When the two halves are one letter apart, the last rung clicks into place by itself.

THREE DAILY LADDERS
• Warm-up, Climb and Summit: from a quick four-letter puzzle to a long ladder of up to eight steps.
• Everyone gets the same word ladder puzzles on the same day, so you can compare results with friends.
• Par is the shortest possible ladder, found by searching every accepted word. Reach par for three stars.
• After you finish, Lexirung shows one shortest ladder, so you learn new routes for tomorrow.

MADE FOR THINKING, NOT FOR GUESSING
• A wrong word costs nothing. Try again, undo any rung, switch ends whenever you like.
• Letters that already match the other end get a small green dot.
• The changed letter of every rung is marked, so you can read your whole climb at a glance.
• A carefully cleaned word list: everyday English words from 3 to 6 letters, no names, no abbreviations, no offensive words.

FREE CLIMB AND DUELS
• Free climb: endless random ladders with 3, 4, 5 or 6 letters, all open from the start.
• Duel: pick any two words, Lexirung checks that a ladder exists and computes par. Send the challenge to a friend and see who climbs it in fewer steps.
• Share your daily result as a spoiler-free card with bars and stars.

HINTS WHEN YOU ARE STUCK
• Nudge: shows which letter to change next, without telling you the word.
• Rung: places the next word on a shortest ladder for you.
• Free every day: 2 nudges and 1 rung. More hints with an optional short video, only if you choose to watch it.

STATISTICS AND STREAKS
Track games played, how often you hit par, your current and best streak, and how far over par you climb on each daily ladder. An optional daily reminder tells you when new ladders are ready.

PRIVACY
No account and no sign-up. Your progress stays on your phone. The game sends anonymous usage counts (for example "a ladder was solved") without any device ID, so we can see which parts of the game work. In the free version our advertising partners may use your device's advertising ID; you can change your choices any time under Settings > Ad privacy choices. Details are in the privacy policy.
