Swap letters and find ten words a day to take on the world. Jump into the adventure of the new Ascension mode! Free, with no ads or account required.
Find ten hidden words every day and aim for the highest score on the daily grid! Motif is a strategic word game that combines clever wordplay with match-3-inspired mechanics. Free, ad-free, and no account required.
THE WORD GAME WHERE WORDS HIDE!
Swap letters, spot words, and plan your next move. Swipe across words to clear them from the grid. Every move shapes what comes next, so choose wisely!
Everyone starts with the same grid. Submit your score if you’d like, and see where you rank on the daily leaderboard.
NEW ASCENSION MODE! Motif becomes a full-blown adventure! Climb ten increasingly tough levels packed with bosses, special tiles, and bonuses galore. Motif has never played like this—and it’s free!
ZEN MODES
Want to play without the pressure? Zen Mode gives you fresh grids and the same rules, but with no word limit and no leaderboard. Take your time and play at your own pace.
+ “À LA CARTE” MODE! You set your own rules: swipe words bottom to top, right to left, in an L shape, use unlimited letter swaps… You call the shots.
+ M0T1F MODE! This time, numbers take the stage: swipe tiles to add them up and hit the target number. Careful, this one’s dangerously addictive!
MAKE IT YOURS
Customize Motif to suit your style: fonts, colors, tile shapes, score display, backgrounds… even the app icon.

The leaderboard is entirely optional. If you choose to participate, only your score, the date, and the grid language are submitted. No account, no advertising ID, and no player profile.
