Overview

Dualword is a free daily word puzzle from Swizzle Works. Each day you get two five-letter answers on one board. Every guess scores against both words at once. The top half of a tile is word one. The bottom half is word two. Navy means the letter is in the right spot. Gold means it is in the word, but elsewhere. Gray means it is not in that word. You have eight tries. The daily puzzle flips at midnight in America/New York, same as Onword. Play free in the browser at dualword.swizzleworks.com. There is no account. Today's pair is resolved on your device, so you can play offline. iOS and Android apps are still on the way.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about Dualword, platforms, and who it is for.

How do you play Dualword?

Guess both five-letter words in eight tries. Each guess must be a real word. One guess scores against both answers. The top half of a tile is word one. The bottom half is word two. Navy is the right letter in the right spot. Gold is in the word, but elsewhere. Gray is not in that word.

Where can I play Dualword today?

Play free in the browser at dualword.swizzleworks.com. iOS and Android apps are still coming. Join the waitlist on the product page if you want a note when they ship.

Is Dualword free?

Yes. The web game is free. There is no account and no paywall on the daily puzzle.

How is Dualword different from Wordle or Onword?

Wordle hides one word. Dualword hides two, and every guess scores against both on a split tile. Onword is a different Swizzle Works game: you connect letters on a path board instead of guessing hidden answers.
