A daily word puzzle that rewards your best thinking

Mixle is a free daily word game. Each day you get 9 letters and one goal: build the highest-scoring word you can. Use all 9 for a bonus, or play it safe with a shorter word — but whatever you don't use carries over to the next round. Think Scrabble strategy meets the daily ritual of Wordle, with a twist that makes every decision matter.

No app to download. No account to create. Just open mixle.fun and play.

How Mixle works

Every puzzle starts with the same 9 letters for every player. Tap letters to spell a word, then submit it for Scrabble-style points. Longer words and uncommon letters earn more. Use all 9 letters and you get a bonus.

Here's the catch: any letters you don't use carry over to the next round, mixed in with fresh letters to fill back up to 9. That means your choices echo forward — a greedy short word now might leave you stuck later. Three rounds, cumulative scoring.

A new puzzle goes live every day at midnight. It takes about five minutes to play, which makes it easy to fit into a morning coffee, a lunch break, or a commute.

What makes it different from Wordle

Wordle asks you to guess a hidden word. Mixle asks you to build something. There's no binary right-or-wrong moment — you're optimizing, not guessing. Every valid word scores points, so every game feels productive even if you don't hit a perfect run.

The carry-over mechanic adds a layer of strategy that Wordle doesn't have. Do you use 5 letters for a solid word and carry 4 forward? Or go for the 9-letter anagram and the bonus? If you've ever wished Wordle had more depth, or that Scrabble didn't require an hour and an opponent, Mixle sits right in between.

A daily game for word lovers

Mixle belongs to the growing family of daily puzzle games — alongside Wordle, Connections, Spelling Bee, and others — that give you one small challenge per day. The daily format keeps things fresh without becoming a time sink. Play once, share your score, come back tomorrow.

The shared puzzle means everyone gets the same 9 letters on the same day, so you can compare strategies with friends without spoiling anything.
