Wend

Trace hidden words through a letter grid. You only know how long each word is — and every letter is used once.

How to play

1. The grid hides four to seven words. Grey tiles are walls.
2. The rows under the grid show one blank per letter — you know each word's length, not the word.
3. Drag through adjacent letters (up, down, left, right — never diagonal) to spell a word. Words can bend as much as they like.
4. Every open tile belongs to exactly one word. When all tiles are used, you're done.
5. A wrong trace flashes red and clears. Use Hint to reveal the next letter of the shortest unfound word.

FAQ

What is Wend?

Wend is a word-path puzzle: hidden words snake through a grid of letters, each tile used exactly once. LinkedIn launched its version in June 2026. Ours uses the same rules with our own grids and a common-English word list.

Can words go diagonally?

No. Only up, down, left and right.

Where do the words come from?

A list of about 6,700 common English words, 3–8 letters. No proper nouns from obscure sources, no abbreviations.
