WordSlip is a free daily puzzle in our word games collection. WordSlip is a free daily word puzzle on DailyPlay. Seven letters are scattered across a hexagonal grid; you unscramble the day's word, then drag a continuous path that visits the letters from first to last. Hints, undo and notes are available if you stall, and finishing feeds DailyPlay's streak and XP layer without requiring an account for the core board. It is a compact spatial Wordle cousin: same daily cadence, but the challenge is pathing letters on a hex rather than coloring a five-letter guess grid.

What is WordSlip?
WordSlip is a free daily word puzzle on DailyPlay. Seven letters are scattered across a hexagonal grid; you unscramble the day's word, then drag a continuous path that visits the letters from first to last. Hints, undo and notes are available if you stall, and finishing feeds DailyPlay's streak and XP layer without requiring an account for the core board. It is a compact spatial Wordle cousin: same daily cadence, but the challenge is pathing letters on a hex rather than coloring a five-letter guess grid. It sits alongside other word games on DLE Arena so you can compare rules, play time and similar titles before you open the official board. Like most "-dle" dailies, WordSlip is built for a short shared session: one puzzle (or a small set of rounds) that resets on a published schedule, usually without an account.
How to play WordSlip
- Study the seven hex cells and work out which English word they anagram to.
- Drag a continuous path that spells that word from the first letter through to the last.
- Use Hint, Undo or Notes if a path dead-ends, then finish to lock today's result.
- Optionally share the board or browse previous puzzles after you win.
WordSlip tips
- Solve the anagram on paper before dragging so you do not paint a wrong path early.
- Start the path from an end letter with only one neighbor option when the grid is crowded.
- Undo immediately after a mis-tap; a clean path is faster than patching around a bad start.
