Description

Word Ladder is a puzzle in which there 6 rows, each able to take a 4-letter word, where the words at the top and the bottom are presented, but the words in the middle four rows are hidden. To solve the puzzle, you need to find 4 intermediate 4-letter words such that each word differs from the one above and below by one letter only.

So, given the following word ladder:

SUNK
----
----
----
----
MASH

one solution would be:

SUNK
BUNK
BANK
BASK
BASH
MASH

You will find that you will have to introduce an additional letter into one, and only one, of the four positions that does not appear in this position in the top or bottom words. So, in the example solution above, the letter B is introduced into the first position.

All word ladders are generated from an internal dictionary, with care being taken to ensure that there isn't a solution that requires only three intermediate words.

This app is child-safe as vulgar words are not in the dictionary used for generation. However, there is a second dictionary is used for checking that contains such words, and also other rare or otherwise contentious words, so that the words used in your solution containing these should not be rejected.

You can check your solution and also see the system's solution.

A hint facility shows you the additional letter that must be introduced to achieve the system solution.

This app should last you a lifetime, as there are over 2500 words in the dictionaries. Testing demonstrated that at least 100,000 word ladders with different top-bottom word pairs are available.

The program state is remembered when you exit the app, so that you can continue where you left off.

No internet connection is required, so the app can be used anywhere, even on a plane, train or car where no internet connection is available.

The app is also available from i.compactfun.com if you cannot download from the Play Store. A web-based version that can be played on most browsers is also there.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

4 ★Really like this app as it is easy, simple and fun. However, I would recommend maybe adding a reset button to make all the fields go blank but I know it's not necessary but it would make the app more enjoyable. Hope this helps.
5 ★Finally an excellent word ladder app.
