Word 1 is ready.

Words have architecture

Read above and below the line.

Ascenders rise, descenders fall, and some letters occupy more space than others. Glyph removes the alphabet and leaves only that typographic fingerprint behind.

The rules

Inspect the outline made by ascenders, descenders and letter widths. Enter a word that fits the silhouette, or reveal an optional clue when shape alone is not enough.

What makes it different

Glyph makes the normally invisible shape of written language into the clue, producing a word game that feels distinct from letter-colour deduction.

How to play

Recognise the word's skyline.

  1. 01
    Read the silhouette

    Tall shapes rise above the body; descenders fall below the baseline. Width and curves matter too.

  2. 02
    Use the category

    Every word starts with one broad subject clue and three attempts.

  3. 03
    Buy only what you need

    Mark vowels, reveal a definition or uncover one letter. Each clue costs points.
