The Morning Ladder

About this game

A newspaper-style word-ladder puzzle. Climb from the start word to the goal by changing one letter at a time — every rung must be a real word. Finish at or under par for a bonus, spend points on hints when you're stuck, and shuffle endless puzzles across Easy (3-letter), Medium (4-letter) and Hard (5-letter) editions. Satisfying tile-flip animations, golf-style scoring, streaks, and a clean broadsheet look.

How to play

Tap a tile (or use the left/right arrow keys) to choose a letter position, then type or tap a new letter and press Enter to commit the rung. Backspace or Reset reverts your working word. Buttons: Hint (−30 pts), Undo, Give up, New puzzle, Sound toggle.
