Word Ladder
Turn the start word into the goal word, changing one letter at a time. Every step has to be a real four-letter word. There is a new daily ladder, the same for everyone, and as many more as you like.

How to play
Type the next word, or tap a letter of the last word and choose its replacement. Each step changes exactly one letter and must be a word from our list.
Highlighted letters already match the goal. Take back a step with Undo, or ask for a hint to see the next word of a shortest route.
Reaching the goal is enough, but fewer steps are better. The side panel shows the shortest ladder and your best result per level. The daily ladder changes at midnight, UK time.
