Squareword is a daily word puzzle that blends Wordle-style guessing with a crossword-like grid. Your goal is to fill a 5×5 square using valid five-letter words so that five across words and five down words all work together. Each guess helps you refine the grid, and once all letters are correct, both the across and down words will read as real words.

Squareword Tips & Strategy
- Start with Flexible Words: Choose opening words with common vowels and consonants (E, A, R, N, S, T) to give yourself more crossing options.
- Build One Line at a Time: Lock in a strong across word, then test whether it produces realistic down-word prefixes.
- Watch the Endcaps: English words love ending in E, R, or Y—if your candidate ends in B or C, the probability of finding a workable crossing letter is much lower.
- Think in Word Families: If you have “SC_NE,” consider SCENE, SCONE, SCALE, or SCENT and test how each fits vertically.
- Don’t Force a Word: If one line refuses to work, back up and replace an earlier word—Squareword rewards flexibility more than stubbornness.
