What is CraftWord?
CraftWord is a daily word puzzle that challenges you to transform a starting word into a goal word. Each move lets you add, remove, change, or rearrange letters, and the aim is to reach the goal in as few steps as possible.
How to play CraftWord
You begin with a given starting word and a target ending word. On each turn, you modify the current word by adding one letter, removing one letter, changing one letter, or rearranging the existing letters. The puzzle is solved when you reach the exact goal word, and you try to do so in the fewest moves.
Tips & strategy
- Look for shared letters between the start and goal to plan which letters to keep.
- Rearranging letters can often unlock new words without changing the letter set.
- Try removing or changing letters early to simplify the word before building toward the goal.
- Work backward from the goal as well as forward from the start to spot a midpoint.
- Keep a mental list of common short words to use as stepping stones.
