How to Play Word on the Island

Guess the hidden 5-letter word in 6 tries or fewer. The word is completely random, so the word you need to guess will be completely different to the person next to you.

Each guess must be a valid word. After every guess, the tiles will change colour to show how close you are.

🟩 Green – The letter is correct and in the right position.
🟨 Yellow – The letter is in the word but in the wrong position.
Grey – The letter is not in the word.

Use the clues from each guess to figure out the word before you run out of attempts.
