how to play


When you click "begin" you will see a grid of boxes, with letters on the top and themes on the left.


In the top left box, there will be a timer counting down from 250.


Type something that matches both the letter and theme for each box's respective column and row.


Generally, for names, the rules are flexible about which letter counts.


Due to the nearly infinite correct answers, it is ultimately up to you to abide by the rules.

The box will consider itself answered as long as you write something in it.


The more boxes you fill, the better you've done! The game ends when the timer runs out.


Enjoy comparing your results with your friends and family!


The grid will refresh with a new set of letters and themes each day, so keep coming back!


Thanks so much for playing :)
