WordGlyph
An alphabet made of sticks. Reveal the word stick by stick. The fewer sticks you use, the better your score!
WordGlyph is a completely new kind of word puzzle. Every letter is built from segments—"sticks"—and your job is to figure out the hidden six-letter word while using as few of them as possible.
HOW TO PLAY
Tap segments on a letter grid to narrow down the possible letters. Green sticks mean you guessed a correct segment. Red sticks mean a segment is not part of that letter, but they still narrow down the possibilities. Once you've identified a letter, tap it in the alphabet bar to lock it in. When you're ready, submit your word guess.
THE STRATEGY
Using the fewest green sticks is best, so don't complete the letter segments! If you think you know what a letter is, it’s best to validate your theory by tapping a segment you think isn't there. Green sticks always increase your score by 1.
Utilize the Unused Stick Bonus: The number of unused green segments remaining in the word determines how many "free" red stick guesses you get. But be careful: a wrong word guess costs 3 sticks and wipes out your bonus entirely.
