Tips & Tricks for HelloWords
Tip #1
Common Letters
For your first of six attempts, it’s best to choose a word that contains five different and very common letters (e.g., E, A, I, N, R, S, T). This increases your chances of scoring early hits.
Tip #2
Valid Words
Every guess must be a real, existing word. Random letter combinations won't be accepted. Not sure if a word is valid? If it's in the dictionary, it counts. Choose your word carefully before submitting!
Tip #3
Possible Words
Nouns, verbs, and adjectives are all fair game. Singular and plural forms are both accepted. Keep an open mind: the solution could be any common English word!
Tip #4
Six Attempts
Be careful: the solution word must be found by the “sixth attempt.” This means that if you have already entered five test words, the sixth must be identical to the solution word.
Tip #5
Relaxation
Take your time while playing! Although HelloWords doesn’t offer classic jokers, you do have time to think. Use it! There’s no timer running in the background to put you under pressure.
Tip #6
Good to know
Under Game Options, you can increase contrast, activate icons for color blindness, use the on-screen keyboard, and change the language at any time.
Instructions for HelloWords
1. Basics
In HelloWords, you enter a valid word using the keyboard and then press the Enter key. If you’re playing at home on a PC, you can use your physical keyboard as well. After submitting a word, the result is revealed using colors.
If a letter in your test word is in the correct position in the solution word, it turns green. If a letter is part of the solution word but appears in a different position, it turns orange. Letters that turn gray do not appear in the solution word at all.
You can enter up to six test words in the grid to guess the hidden word.

HelloWords is a game designed for relaxation. There is no timer, no scoring system, and no high score. The daily edition of the game is meant to fill short time slots with fun and brain training.
However, there is a special feature for particularly ambitious word enthusiasts. After each round, a summary shows how many attempts you needed to find the solution and what percentage of all players you outperformed. Could this statistic spark your competitive spirit?
