Word Deduction: rules and examples

Make Word Deduction your next activity in the game library. Guess the five-letter answer in six attempts. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Use the example below to understand a decision.

Guess a five-letter answer from the included collection. Entries must contain five letters; accepted guesses are not checked against a complete dictionary.

Something to practise

Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Use the example to check your reasoning.

The goal to keep in mind

Guess the five-letter answer in six attempts. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Notice how the game responds to your input.

Start here and follow along

  1. Enter five letters.
  2. Green marks the correct position; gold marks an available copy elsewhere.
  3. Grey means no matching unused copy.
  4. Use the feedback to solve.

How to use the controls

Type a guess and press Check guess or Enter. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.

Follow the example

With APPLE as the answer and ALLEE as the guess, the first A and final E are in the right places. The extra L and E are not both counted as present. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Verify the rule before continuing.

Avoid this misunderstanding

Repeated letters do not imply unlimited copies in the answer. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
