Arabic Word Scramble

A spelling game for Arabic words. You get the meaning and the letters, shuffled. Tap them back into order, and the answer joins up as you go, the way Arabic letters connect in real writing.

How to play

  1. Pick a dialect and a theme. Each set has five words, from short to long.
  2. Read the meaning, then tap the letters in the order you think they go. The word builds from right to left.
  3. Undo takes back the last letter. Stuck? A hint places the next correct letter, and Skip shows the answer.
  4. Finish the set to see which words you unscrambled on your own.

Common questions

Arabic letters change shape. How do the tiles work?

Each tile shows a letter on its own, the way it looks in the alphabet. When you place it, it joins the letters around it and takes the shape it has inside the word. Watching that happen is half the point of the game.

Is there a timer?

No. Take as long as you need. The score counts the words you solved without a hint or a skip.

Can I type instead of tapping?

Yes. With an Arabic keyboard layout, typing a letter places the matching tile and Backspace takes the last one back.
