Every word belongs somewhere.

Reveal category cards as you work through the deck, then drag each word into the group where it belongs. The answer is always clear — the challenge is making room for it.

How to play

Make space for the next connection.

01

Reveal a group

Drag a Category Card into an empty Category Slot to uncover its theme.

02

Sort with intent

Drag available Word Cards into their matching group. A wrong revealed group costs a Move.

03

Keep a nook free

Use Temp Slots when the right group is still hidden, then clear them as soon as the path opens.

04

Rotate the board

In later levels, completing a group frees its slot for the next category waiting in the deck.

A longer journey

From gentle connections to layered word paths.

Start with three familiar groups. Later, four groups rotate through three Category Slots, demanding sharper sequencing and more careful use of your temporary space.
