Frequently Asked Questions

What makes 6-letter mode difficult?

With an extra letter, there are significantly more word combinations and permutations to consider, testing the limits of your working memory and vocabulary. To balance it out, you get 7 guesses instead of 6!

What happens if I enter an invalid word?

If your word is too short or not in our dictionary, the row will shake and flash red. This means you need to try a different word. Don't worry, it won't count as one of your guesses!

Do I earn more XP for this mode?

Yes, completing more difficult puzzles on the Smotix platform yields higher XP rewards to help you level up faster.
