Build a running chain of words where each new word must start with the last letter of the word before it. Keep the chain going without repeating a word, racing to extend it as long as you can before time or ideas run out.

How to play Word Chain

  1. Read the current word at the end of the chain.
  2. Note its final letter, since your word must begin with it.
  3. Type a valid word starting with that letter.
  4. Submit to add it to the chain and continue from its last letter.
  5. Keep linking words without repeating any to extend your chain.

Tips & strategy

  • Steer toward words that end in common letters like 'E' or 'R' to keep your options open.
  • Avoid ending on tricky letters like 'X' or 'Q' that are hard to start from next.
  • Keep a few flexible words in mind so you're never stalled when the timer ticks.

Controls: Type a word and press Enter to add it to the chain.

Word Chain — FAQ

Can I reuse a word?

No, each word in the chain must be new, so repeats aren't allowed.

What if I can't think of a word?

If you stall, the chain ends; your goal is to keep it going as long as possible before that happens.
