• Word definitions: see what each word means as you play — the current word's definition sits under the tiles, and tapping any rung on your ladder shows its definition too. Definitions from Wiktionary. • New Accessibility settings: choose a Standard, Large, or Extra Large keyboard (Extra Large uses an A–Z layout with the biggest keys), and turn on "Confirm each move" to preview a letter on its tile and play it with a second tap, so a mis-tap never costs a life.

A bigger dictionary. Some of you reported that perfectly good words were getting rejected, so we loosened up the word list. Over a hundred everyday words that used to be filtered out are now fair game on the ladder. Daily streak rewards. Finish the Daily Puzzle on consecutive days and the owl pays out a growing Lexeme bonus, up to a 7-day reward that keeps paying every day you hold the streak. Fixed: Owl's Favor could stop responding after a long session. It now fetches a fresh favor every time. Keep climbing!

The "Daniel needs help" update. Climbing just got kinder. • Missed words now stay on your ladder, struck through, so you can see what you've already tried. • Trying a word you've already used or already missed no longer costs a life — the owl just reminds you.
