HOW IT WORKS

Turn clues into a shorter word list

Use the same clue colors you see in word games to filter possible five-letter answers quickly.

How each clue changes the word list

The animation shows how the solver reads green, yellow, and gray inputs before returning matching candidates.

Green clue R is locked in slot 2 R Current candidates PLANE CRANE STARE TRACE Keep words where position 2 is R CRANE TRACE GRACE PLANE Yellow clue A must appear somewhere A Current candidates CRANE ROUTE PLANE TRACE Keep words that include A CRANE PLANE TRACE ROUTE Gray clue S is ruled out S Current candidates CRANE SLATE PLANE STARE Remove words containing S CRANE PLANE SLATE STARE

Start with the clues you know

Enter green letters in the exact positions where they are confirmed. Add yellow letters that must appear somewhere in the word. Use gray letters to remove words that contain letters you already ruled out.

Review the filtered results

The solver compares your clues against the word data and returns candidates that still fit. As you add more clues, the list becomes shorter and easier to scan.

Use the list as a guide

The tool is designed to help you narrow the field, not force a guess. You can use the candidate list to choose a safer answer or compare possible next guesses.

Green clues

Use these when a letter is confirmed in an exact position.

Yellow clues

Use these when a letter belongs in the answer but the exact position is still unknown.

Gray clues

Use these when a letter should be excluded from possible answers.

Word list

Use the results to compare remaining candidates and decide what to try next.
