Large print Honeycomb Words: seven letters, as many words as you can

Seven letters sit in a honeycomb, one in the middle and six around it. Your job is to make words of four letters or more that use only those letters and always include the one in the middle. A letter may be used again and again, so a word such as a plural or a double letter is fair. Somewhere in every puzzle there is a word that uses all seven letters; it is marked with a star when you find it.

Everything is big and plain. Tap the letters to spell a word, press Enter to check it, and a correct word joins your list at the side. Delete takes back the last letter, and Shuffle mixes up the six outer letters, which is often all it takes to see a new word. If you prefer a keyboard, typing works too. There is no drag, no timer to beat and no penalty for a word that is not accepted.

Finish when you have enough

You do not have to find every word. Easy asks for 8 words, Medium for 14 and Hard for 22, and the screen always shows how many you have found. The word list is an ordinary one, so very rare words, abbreviations, names and hyphenated words are left out; if a word is turned away, simply try another.

Hints and saving

If you are stuck, press Hint and an everyday word you have not found yet is added to your list. Hints are always your choice, and they only affect the stars you earn: three stars for none, two for one or two, and one for more. The timer counts up, never down, and it can be hidden with Zen Mode. Your progress is saved on your own device after every word, so you can stop at any time and carry on later, and finishing a puzzle each day builds your streak.

Frequently asked questions

How does Honeycomb Words work?
You get seven letters in a honeycomb, with one letter in the middle. Make words of four letters or more that use only those seven letters and always include the middle one. You may use a letter more than once. Tap the letters, press Enter to check the word, and keep going until you have found the number of words shown on the screen.
What is the word that uses all seven letters?
Every puzzle has at least one word that uses all seven letters. It is marked with a star in your list. You do not have to find it to finish, but it is a pleasure when you do.
Why was my word not accepted?
The word must be four letters or more, use only the seven letters, and include the middle one. The puzzle also uses an ordinary word list, so it leaves out very rare words, abbreviations, names and words with hyphens. If a good word is turned away, try another one; you only need the number of words shown to finish.
Is there a clock or a score?
There is a timer that counts up, and you can hide it with Zen Mode. There is no penalty for a wrong word, and nothing is marked against you.
Can I get a hint?
Yes. Press Hint and an everyday word that you have not found yet is added to your list. The Hint button shows how many hints you have used so far, and hints only change the stars you earn, never what you can play. Shuffle mixes up the outer letters so a new word is easier to see.
Is it free, and is my progress saved?
A free Easy Honeycomb Words is waiting every day, with no account and no ads. The words you have found and your time are saved as you play, so you can close the page and carry on later on the same device.
