The essentials of playing Letter Link

Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Letter Link. Find every target word from the six-letter bank. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Choose a comfortable screen position before beginning. Look at what changes after your first action.

Make words from two letter sets: PLANET and STREAM. Each set uses a selected list of accepted answers.

Practice beyond the first move

Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Notice the feedback after each input.

What you are aiming for

Find every target word from the six-letter bank. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Take a moment to understand the current position.

How a round unfolds

  1. Select letters in order, each tile once per word.
  2. Submit the word.
  3. Clear letters to retry.
  4. Find all displayed word lengths.

Keyboard and screen controls

Tap letters and Submit word. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

A closer look at one example

PLANET makes PLANT, PLANE and PETAL. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Notice the change in the playing area.

Avoid this misunderstanding

Not every dictionary word is a target in this curated list. Check the rule before repeating the action. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
