About Word Forward
Word Forward is a word puzzle game with 500 puzzles. You trace lines between letters in a 5x5 grid to spell words, making the tiles disappear until the board is clear. You need to use every tile, planning how to use the letters rather than aiming for the longest or most clever words.
Tile tools
You can use several tools to change the grid or remove difficult tiles:
- Swap Token: swap any two letters on the grid; you earn tokens during gameplay.
- Jumble: replace all the letters with new ones when other options fail.
- Swap Modifier: change a tile’s letter to any other letter you choose.
- Bombs: eliminate stubborn tiles.
Words are formed by tracing between tiles in any direction, including diagonally.
