Katapat - Teka Kata Malaysia is a word game centered on guessing a hidden Malay word in a limited number of attempts. The game is designed to test Malay vocabulary and puzzle-solving skills, with settings that let you shape the challenge around your preferred level of difficulty.
Choose the shape of the puzzle
Before working on a word, players can choose the difficulty level, the number of letters, and the number of attempts available. These options provide different conditions for the guessing task, allowing the game to accommodate players with different levels of experience with word puzzles.
Use guesses and hints to find the word
The main activity is to consider the available letters and submit guesses for the hidden word. Hints are also provided to guide the guessing process when needed. Taking time to assess each letter and guess is part of the documented play approach, while the selected attempt limit defines how many chances are available.
Continue through additional challenges
Alongside its customizable puzzles, Katapat includes daily challenges and leaderboards where players can compete with friends. These elements add separate reasons to return to the word-guessing format without changing its central focus on Malay vocabulary.
Presentation and language focus
The game uses a colorful interface intended to be easy to navigate. Its Malay-language word focus also gives players an interactive way to practice vocabulary and encounter new words while solving puzzles.
