DRIFT

How to play Drift

Transform the start word at the top into the target word at the bottom. Each row must change exactly one letter from the row above, and every intermediate word must be a valid English word. Tap a cell to select it, then type a letter (or use the keypad).

Tips

The minimum-length ladder is rarely the only solution — any valid path counts. If stuck, use + ADD STEP to insert a row, or HINT to reveal one letter of a known short solution. The theme hints at how the start and target relate, which often suggests the path. Daily mode shares one puzzle worldwide; RANDOM draws from the full pair pool.
