Brain Test: Tricky Words Game

Brain Test: Tricky Words is an anagram-style word puzzle: each level gives you a picture clue and a jumble of letters, and the job is to work out the hidden word and spell it correctly. The trick is usually in the clue — the picture points at more than one possible word, and only one of them is the answer.

It's built for short sessions. Levels are quick to attempt, so it suits a puzzle or two at a time rather than one long sitting, with letter counts and clues getting trickier the further you get.

Controls

Click the letters to build your answer, or type the word on your keyboard. Both mouse and touch work, so it plays on desktop, phone, or tablet.

Tips

• Look at the picture clue first — the most obvious word it suggests isn't always the answer.
• If you're stuck, think about shorter or less common words the letters could spell instead of the first one that comes to mind.
• Typing tends to be quicker than clicking through letters once you're confident in an answer.

A good fit for word-game fans who want short, clue-based puzzles rather than one long session.
