Parseword Game Rules

Select or manipulate the clue words according to the indicated wordplay so that the result is a synonym or equivalent of the target. A deletion removes a letter, a container inserts one word into another, and an anagram rearranges letters; other keywords signal different operations. Learn mode provides more help, while Challenge mode hides more of the solving information.

  • Use the clue words and keyword indicators to build the target word.
  • Operations can include deletion, container, reverse, anagram, or homophone.
  • Learn mode exposes definitions and suggestions for the mechanism.
  • Play and Challenge modes require more independent parsing.
