SPARES is a free daily chain word game. You start with one word and work down a chain of clues. For each clue, drop one letter from the current word and rearrange the rest to spell the answer. The one letter left over each time is your spare. Every spare lands in the bonus tray, and by the end of the chain the spares spell a hidden bonus word.
Puzzles take two to four minutes. Each calendar day has its own numbered puzzle, and a new one unlocks at midnight in your local time. Missed a day? Open the archive from the calendar icon to browse every earlier puzzle by year and month, search by number, date or clue, or jump to a random puzzle you haven't solved.
