Cascadle is a free daily word game where you solve a chain of five words that grow from three letters to seven. Each word you crack is re-coloured against the next answer, so every solve hands you a head start on the word below it.
There is no guess limit and no lose state. The only score is how few tiles you spend — a flawless run costs 25.
Free, no account, no download. One cascade a day for everyone at 00:00 UTC, so you and your friends are always solving the same puzzle. A session takes three to six minutes.
Because guesses are unlimited, a bad opening never ends your run. The pressure comes from wanting a tidy score, not from a countdown of lives.
Consecutive answers always share almost all of their letters: the next word keeps at least all but one of them and adds the rest. That is why a solved word is never finished — it is the opening clue for the word beneath it.
A new cascade appears at 00:00 UTC — the countdown at the top of the board matches everyone else's, wherever they are. Yesterday's chain stays hidden until the archive opens, so nobody gets spoiled by a friend in another time zone.
Yes. No account, no download, no ads.
At 00:00 UTC every day. The same chain goes out worldwide, so the countdown on the board is the same one everybody sees.
As many as you like. Your score is the total number of tiles you used, not the number of guesses — a perfect run costs 25 tiles.
Any word in our dictionary of about 52,000 common English words, US spelling. Answers are drawn from a much smaller pool of everyday words, so you will never have to guess something obscure.

Yes — the streak counts consecutive days you finished the daily cascade. Missing a day resets it to zero.
