How to Play

1 Basic rules

Guess the hidden word within six tries.

In Korean mode each tile is a jamo (letter unit); in English mode each tile is a letter (5-letter words). Fill the row and press Enter.

After each guess the tiles change color to show how close you were.

ㅅ ㅏ ㄹ ㅏ ㅇ

ㅅ is in the word and in the correct spot. (green)

ㄱ ㅏ ㅁ ㅅ ㅏ

ㅁ is in the word but in the wrong spot. (yellow)

ㅇ ㅕ ㄹ ㅡ ㅁ

ㅡ is not in the word. (gray)

2 Battle rules

A real-time 1:1 turn-based duel. Each turn lasts 20 seconds; players alternate one guess at a time.

  • Same word — both players race on the same answer. You can see your opponent's best row.
  • Different word — each player solves a different answer of the same length.
  • The mode is picked automatically at matchmaking and stays visible as a badge at the top.

  • ⏱ Timeout — after 20 seconds the row is auto-passed and the turn moves on. (uses up a row)
  • 🏆 Win — guess the word first and you win.
  • 🤝 Draw — if neither player solves it in six rows, it's a draw.
  • 🚪 Forfeit / leave — forfeiting or leaving mid-game counts as a loss. (opponent wins)

You can compose letters during your opponent's turn; submitting only works on yours.

3 Scoring

The skill adjustment is ELO-style: beating a stronger player earns more, losing to a weaker one costs more.
