What is Sentle?

Sentle is a daily puzzle that asks you to reassemble a sentence from a classic work of literature. Each day, a famous passage is broken into jumbled phrases, and your job is to drag them back into the correct order. After solving, you can test your literary knowledge by naming the source work.

How to play Sentle

You'll start with a warm-up sentence, then move on to the day's main puzzle. Drag the phrase tiles into what you believe is the correct order, then press Check to see which ones are right—correct phrases turn green and lock, while incorrect ones turn amber. If you're stuck, you can use hints to merge phrases into larger chunks, and you'll always see the line or two leading up to the missing sentence for context.

Tips & strategy

  • Read the context lines before the jumbled sentence—the narrative flow often reveals the correct order.
  • Look for natural grammatical patterns, like subject-verb-object or common prepositional phrases, to guide your arrangement.
  • Use the capital letter on the first phrase and the end punctuation on the last as anchors for the sentence's boundaries.
  • Don't guess blindly—checking early can lock in correct phrases and narrow down the remaining possibilities.
  • After solving, try to recall the work's title; even if you don't know it, the sentence's style can hint at the author or era.
