The same daily for everyone. Solve it at par for a Lucid run and keep your streak alive.

Climb the ladder

Rise from Sleepwalker to Aristotle on a ladder of history's great associators.

How it works

You get a start word and a goal word. The board shows every real association of your current word — pick one to move closer. No undo, no dead ends: every move counts.

The magic is real: measured across thousands of words, any word reaches any other in about six steps. That's the whole game — and it's never the same twice.
