Tested in November 2026. Building words from the pieces, the hint, the clear and skip buttons, the scoring and the daily set were tested in a desktop browser. The word list has 41 common Hindi words, checked by us for the piece splits. A few words may have more than one correct split in other books; the game uses one fixed split for each.

Tips to score higher
- A piece is an akshar. It can be a letter with a matra, like कि, or a joined letter, like स्ती.
- Look for the piece that normally starts a word. Words rarely start with a piece like ई or ली.
- Say the word out loud as you place the pieces.
- Use the clue. Many clues describe the thing instead of naming it.
Limits to know about
- The game shows each word as pieces, not as single letters, so matras stay joined to their letters.
- The word list is fixed for now. Words repeat across days.
- The clues are short on purpose and may not cover every meaning of the word.

Frequently asked questions
What is Aaj ka challenge?
It gives everyone the same five words on the same date. Finish it on consecutive days to build a streak.
Why are some pieces more than one letter?
Hindi is written in aksharas. A piece such as स्ती is one unit made of joined letters and a matra.
Can I type the word?
Not in this version. You tap the pieces, which works the same on a phone and a computer.
Is it good for children?
Yes. It helps practise spelling and common words. An adult may want to read the clues aloud for younger children.
