Keep the current puzzle unspoiled

The archive lists only puzzle dates whose daily window has ended. Word Chain Daily changes at 08:00 UTC, so a puzzle first becomes a public recap at the following day's reset. The date on a recap is its original puzzle date, not the day you read it.

Choose a date or puzzle number in the archive. The two given words help you recognize a chain; open its explanation only when you are ready to see the five missing words. Recaps include the complete reviewed chain, an explanation for each neighboring phrase or compound, and its source.

Reading an answer recap does not count as solving a puzzle and does not change the completion record stored in your browser. To continue an unfinished saved game, use the dated Continue options on the daily page. For more unsolved chains, play the separate Unlimited practice collection.
