ASCENT WORD CLIMB
  • ARE
  • RATE
  • GRATE
  • GREATS

Every word one letter longer than the last. Start at three, summit at eight.

The game

Ten letters on a rack and ninety seconds. Build a three-letter word, then a four, and keep going. Two tiles are spare — yours to leave out.

Everyone in the world gets the same board each day, and one attempt at it. Height decides your place on the leaderboard; speed only breaks the tie.

Help

My climb is not on the leaderboard.

Runs are posted when you finish. If you were offline, the app keeps trying — reopen it while connected and it will go up on its own. Runs made before you pick a name are posted when you pick one.

Can I change my name?

Settings → Change name. Once a day.

Someone's name is offensive.

Press and hold their row on the leaderboard to report or hide them. Reported names are reviewed.

How do I delete my account?

Settings → Delete account. It removes your name and profile immediately and cannot be undone. Past leaderboard rows stay, shown as “Climber”.
