Word Wheel

About Word Wheel

Word Wheel gives you a little wheel of letters and a crossword to fill. Drag a finger across the letters to spell a word. If it fits the grid, it pops into place. If it's a real word that isn't in the grid, it's a bonus word and earns coins. Sixty levels start with three letters and grow to seven-letter wheels with fourteen words to find. There's no timer and no losing, so you can shuffle, ask for a hint, or just take your time.

Word Wheel is one of our free words & letters games for kids — play it right here in your browser, or browse all our free online games.

How to Play

• Touch a letter on the wheel and slide to the next ones to spell a word.
• Lift your finger to try it. Slide back one letter to undo.
• Words that fit the crossword pop into the grid. Other real words are bonus words.
• Spend coins on a hint (one letter) or to reveal a whole word.

Tips & Tricks

• Try the short words first. They unlock letters for the longer ones.
• Shuffle the wheel when you're stuck, because a new order shows new words.
• Hunt for bonus words to stock up on hint coins.
