Link Four

Sixteen words hide four secret groups. Pick the four that share a theme.

Misses left: 5 Selected: 0/4 Daily streak: 0

Pick four words that belong together.

How to play

Tap four words that share a hidden connection and submit. Correct groups lock in with their theme. Wrong attempts cost a miss; after four misses a subtle colour hint appears, and after five the answers are revealed. Find all four groups to win.

About

Link Four presents you with a grid of sixteen words each day. Your task is to discover the four hidden themes that each connect exactly four of those words. You select four words you believe share a common category and submit them; if correct, that group locks in and you continue with the remaining words. After four incorrect submissions, the game reveals a hint for one of the unsolved groups to help you finish the puzzle.

How your result is scored

The result is based on how many mistakes you make before completing all four groups. Fewer misses mean a higher rating, with a perfect round requiring zero incorrect guesses. The daily result is shown as a simple tier such as Perfect, Great, Good, or Complete, letting you compare consistency across days without a numeric leaderboard.

Tips to improve

Scan for obvious synonyms or shared prefixes before committing to a group.
Test a tentative set mentally; if three fit perfectly but the fourth feels forced, keep looking.
Use the hint strategically — wait until you have narrowed the remaining words to two plausible categories.
Watch for words that could belong to multiple themes; they are often the key to the hardest group.
Play the same time each day to build pattern recognition across puzzles.
