Synonym Ladder
Pick the word that means nearly the same as the one shown. The rungs get harder as you climb, with a new ladder every day.
How to play
- Each rung shows a word. Choose the option that means nearly the same thing.
- The daily ladder has eight rungs, the same for everyone that day. Practice mode offers longer ladders.
- A wrong pick is disabled and counted, then you try again until you find the right word.
- Finish the ladder with as few misses as you can and share your result.
Tips and strategy
- Read all four options before choosing, since two can look close in meaning.
- Think of a sentence using the shown word, then swap in each option to see which fits.
- Early rungs use common words, and later rungs use rarer ones like meticulous or ubiquitous.
- Wrong options come from unrelated word groups, so you can cross off the odd ones first.
FAQ
- Is the daily ladder the same for everyone?
- Yes. The eight rungs are chosen from the date, so everyone sees the same ladder on the same day.
- Can I play more than once a day?
- Yes. Practice mode gives a fresh ladder of 8, 12 or 20 rungs whenever you want.
- Do wrong answers end the game?
- No. A wrong pick is greyed out and counted as a miss, and you keep trying until you find the right word.
