Word Link is a voice controlled word game where you shout out answers to five clues and then find the one word that links them all. Choose a link, listen to each clue, and just say the answer out loud. Say skip to pass a tough clue or say hint for a nudge in the right direction. Some answers are cryptic, so this brain training puzzle doubles as fun speaking practice and language learning for anyone polishing their spoken English. Solve the clues quickly, because your best time is your score.

Use your voice to solve the clues and crack the link:

Skip!

Say skip to jump past the clue you are stuck on and move to the next one. You can say back later to return and answer it before guessing the link.

The Wind!

When you think you have solved a clue, just say your answer out loud. Answers can be cryptic, so think outside the box before you speak.

Hint

Say hint or clue to reveal a helpful hint for the current clue. Use it when a cryptic answer has you stumped.

Give up

Say give up on the link screen if the connection has you completely beaten. The game moves you on so you can try another link.

Tips

--> Say your answer clearly as a single word or short phrase, because the game listens for the exact answer to each clue.
--> Answer as many of the five clues as you can, since every solved word makes the hidden link much easier to spot.
--> Say hint or clue when you are stuck, say skip to move on, and say back to revisit an earlier clue.
--> Play in a quiet room and keep a steady pace, since background noise can cause mishears on short words.
--> Your score is your time, so solve the clues quickly to set a record you can challenge friends to beat.

Solve all five clues, then say the one word that links them to finish in record time!
