How to play Lexagon
Each day presents a new hexagon grid filled with letters. Swipe across adjacent tiles to form words, clearing the board while racking up points. A clue phrase sits alongside the puzzle, designed to point you toward the Lexagon. Every word in the puzzle is also listed alphabetically below the board, which can help you decode the clue. Finding the Lexagon unlocks unlimited hints, ensuring you can always finish the puzzle.
Tips & strategy
- Use the clue phrase early — it's meant to steer you toward the longest word, not just any word.
- The alphabetical word list below the board is a useful reference when you're stuck on the clue.
- Every three words you find earns a definition hint, so keep building words even if they're short.
- Gold gems collected during play can be spent on extra definition hints when you need a nudge.
- Completing a puzzle earns a diamond, which contributes to your overall progress and rank.
