Playlin'sGuide

Soup of the Day is a daily word scramble where your mission is to spell as many words as possible from a set of seven letters to reach a target score.

Each day, you're served a fresh bowl of letter "croutons" floating in soup. Tap them in sequence to spell valid words, submit, and rack up points. One letter is marked with a golden cracker, meaning you can reuse it endlessly. The challenge is finding enough words to hit the daily point goal.

  • You get 7 letters each day, one of which can be reused unlimited times (marked with a cracker icon).
  • Tap letters to spell a word, then submit. Valid words earn points and fill your word bank.
  • Longer words score more points.
  • There's a target score to hit and a total word count to discover.
  • Each puzzle has dozens of possible words hidden in the mix.
  • A new puzzle drops every day.

Why we like it:

  • The reusable letter twist makes it feel less restrictive than typical word games.
  • No time pressure, so you can sip and solve at your own pace.
  • Hitting that target score feels earned, not lucky.

Hint: Start with short, common words to build momentum, then look for plurals, verb forms, and longer combinations. The reusable letter is usually a vowel, so lean into it for flexibility.
