    How to play Wordrush Quick

    Wordrush Quick is the short version of the daily word game: five racks rather than nine rounds, on a ladder seven squares wide and nine tall. Its middle rail comes already laid, so every rung starts with its middle letter, and every rack is the six letters that make a seven-letter word around it. The rungs go top to bottom, all six letters or nothing, for 75 points on top of what the letters score.

    Find all five and you have won, and the bonus round opens: four blanks laid down one of the two outer rails, through the letters already on the rungs, making one word. Every blank is worth 40. Fill a whole rail with a nine-letter word and you go down the other, and fill both to complete the ladder for 250 more and the Golden Ladder on the leaderboard. Stuck on a rack? You can skip it after eight seconds, but the bonus needs all five.

    Everyone gets the same puzzle each day, and a new one arrives at midnight. It is free, plays in any browser, and your score goes on the same leaderboard as Wordrush Full — the longer nine-round game, if you have more than five minutes.
