How 7 Little Words works

Tips for solving 7 Little Words

• Start with the shortest letter counts — fewer tiles means far fewer combinations to test.
• Scan the tile bank for common prefixes and suffixes (ING, TION, RE, UN, ED) and match them to a clue's letter count before guessing the whole word.
• Because every tile is used exactly once, each answer you lock in removes tiles from play — solve the words you're sure of first and the rest get easier.
• When two clues could take similar tiles, solve the more specific clue first so you don't strand a tile the other word needs.
• Stuck on one word? Open its clue page for a letter-by-letter reveal without spoiling the other six.
