The five levels

Level 1 uses three-letter words such as CAT and DOG. Words grow to four letters, then five, and level 5 finishes with six-letter words like BANANA and RABBIT.

Every level is worth up to three stars, and clearing one unlocks the next. Progress is saved on the device itself, so there is no account to create and nothing to remember.
