Equal Words is a word puzzle game where you use clues and rearrange vertically shuffled letters to uncover hidden answers. The game focuses on vocabulary and trivia through puzzles containing six, seven, or eight words.
Clue-based word puzzles
Every puzzle provides a clue for each word, helping you work out the intended answers. The words in a puzzle have equal length, so you need to move the displayed letters into different combinations while considering the clues. Puzzles vary in difficulty, providing different levels of challenge as you progress through the available set.
Hints and hint credits
If a puzzle proves difficult, you can use hint credits for assistance. Hint credits can be earned by completing puzzles, so solving puzzles can provide more help for later challenges. The supplied guidance also encourages keeping hints for situations where they are most useful and attempting as many answers as possible without them.
Puzzle availability
Equal Words includes 100 puzzles at no cost, with two additional free puzzles provided every weekend. This gives the game a continuing set of clue-based word challenges beyond its initial collection. It is described for use on a phone or tablet, making the puzzles suitable for short solving sessions or longer play.
