THE PLAYBOOK · LYSTDQ

Your guide to Letter Link

Open Letter Link, check the instructions and begin a round. Find every target word from the six-letter bank. Look at what changes after your first action. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. Use the example below to understand a decision.

Make words from two letter sets: PLANET and STREAM. Each set uses a selected list of accepted answers.

Build familiarity through play

Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Your objective

Find every target word from the six-letter bank. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

Follow these playing steps

1. Select letters in order, each tile once per word.
2. Submit the word.
3. Clear letters to retry.
4. Find all displayed word lengths.

Your inputs

Tap letters and Submit word. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

Follow the example

PLANET makes PLANT, PLANE and PETAL. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Consider the next action carefully.

One detail worth checking

Not every dictionary word is a target in this curated list. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
