Word Salad

Word Salad is a word puzzle where your mission is to find themed groups hidden in a grid of 16 letters before your guesses run out.

You're presented with a 4x4 grid of letters. Your job is to trace words by connecting adjacent letters, but here's the twist: the words you find must belong to specific categories. Find all the words in a category to clear it from the board.

• Swipe or click to connect adjacent letters (including diagonals) to form words.
• Each puzzle contains multiple themed categories of words hiding in the same 16 letters.
• Clear a category by finding all its words.

Why we like it:

• ✅The category twist adds a strategic layer beyond just spotting any word.
• ✅Compact enough to solve in one sitting, but tricky enough to feel earned.
• ✅That satisfying click when scattered letters suddenly reveal their hidden theme.

Hint: Once you spot one word in a category, hunt nearby letters for related terms. Categories often share common letter clusters, so that first find is your treasure map.
