How to Play
Lexicle is a daily word puzzle game where you guess the mystery word based on its meaning (not its spelling). Think of it as Wordle meets "hot or cold"—each guess tells you how semantically close you are to the target word.
Example
M
O
N
E
Y
F
U

S

In this example, "FUNDS" is very close to "MONEY" in meaning (red hot), while "PUPPY" is semantically distant (cold). Each guess reveals how close you are based on word relationships, not spelling.
Game Rules
- 11 guesses to find the target word
- All words are 5 letters and family-friendly
- One new puzzle daily at 8:00 AM CST
- Earn points for each unused guess (max 10 points per puzzle)
