Four word games. One daily score.
Novus Word gives you four different ways to test your word skills. Play every mode in a day to multiply your combined score and climb the global leaderboard.
SPARK
Build words from a letter grid. Every word must begin with the highlighted letter, but there’s no timer—take your time and find the longest words you can.
REVEAL
Choose nine tiles to reveal your letters. Once they’re uncovered, you have 30 seconds to create and submit your best word.
HUNT
Ten words are hidden in the grid. Drag across the letters to trace each word before time runs out.
WILD
Complete eight different word challenges on a 5×5 grid. There’s no timer, so experiment, explore and put your vocabulary to the test.
MULTIPLY YOUR SCORE
Every game mode you play increases your daily multiplier:
Play 2 modes — ×2
Play 3 modes — ×3
Play all 4 modes — ×4
Your combined score determines your position on the leaderboard.
CLIMB THE LEADERBOARD
Compete with players around the world across daily, weekly, monthly and all-time leaderboards.
TRACK YOUR PROGRESS
Follow your seven-day score trend, set personal bests, collect achievements and see how you perform in every mode.
