A QUICK BRIEFING

Words with a fuse.

Type an English word containing the highlighted letters together, in order. With ING, you could use spring or ingredient. Press Enter to submit. Relaxed needs 3+ letters, Classic 5+, and Chaos 6+.

You have three lives. An explosion costs one life and resets your streak. A valid word passes the turn. No word can be repeated in a round. Each pressure level gives every starting player three turns, then the fuse shortens by 0.75 seconds, down to 7s / 4s / 2.5s. Classic gets rarer prompts at level 3.

Score: 100 points per word, plus 10 per letter (up to 12 letters) and up to 50 for speed. Your fourth consecutive save earns ×2, your seventh ×3, up to ×5. The multiplier applies to all word points.

Collect all 26 letters to restore a life, up to three, then the alphabet resets.

Solo: beat your best score in each mode. Friends: create a room for 2–8 players. Track scores live; the last player alive wins. Match wins carry across rematches in the same room. The host opens the next round.

English words up to 30 letters, with no spaces, hyphens or apostrophes. Names and most proper nouns aren’t in the dictionary. Each room lasts six hours.
