What is a Custom Word Challenge?
It is a private word puzzle you create. Pick any word, share the link, and your friend solves it in seven tries with the same colour-clue rules as classic word puzzle.
TYPE A WORD IN ENGLISH TO CHALLENGE YOUR FRIEND. YOU CAN USE THE ON-SCREEN KEYBOARD OR YOUR DEVICE’S KEYBOARD.
SECRET WORD
Custom Word Challenge lets you turn any 4-11 letter word into a fresh word puzzle for your friends.
Type a secret word, copy the auto-generated link (for example
https://wordpuzzleunlimited.com/custom-word-challenge/guess-secret-word/…), and send it via WhatsApp, iMessage, Discord, Telegram, email or any chat app.
When your friend opens the link, they get the full Word Puzzle experience — seven guesses, colour clues and the standard keyboard — with your secret word as the answer. No accounts, no installs, nothing to set up.
Custom Word Challenge turns a solo puzzle game into a social activity. Family group chats, office teams, and friend groups use it to send daily challenges back and forth — picking inside jokes, names, or tricky vocabulary words as the secret answer. Because nothing is stored on a server, every challenge is private between you and whoever you send the link to.
