Word Everest
A word game in seven levels. Bank your stars, or climb on.
Word Everest is a word game made from Acumo's collection. A climb has seven levels, each a game of its own, from matching a word to its meaning to spotting the slip in a sentence. Clear a level and you choose: bank the stars you carry, or take them higher for more. Free to play, with no ads, and it collects nothing about you.
The climb
From the simplest game to the hardest- Level 1, Meaning Match: pick the word a meaning describes
- Level 2, Scramble: spell the word from its shuffled letters
- Level 3, Sound Pairs: find the words on a board that sound the same
- Level 4, Clue Ladder: type each rung of a ladder, one letter changed, with the word's meaning as its clue
- Level 5, Spot the Slip: tap the word that slipped in for its look-alike or sound-alike
- Level 6, Right Word: fill the gap with the right one of a pair, then read why
- Level 7, the Summit: one short round of all six games on one clock, and everyone who finishes places

- Coins buy more climbs once the free passes are used, a continue after a fall, and hints
- Wins pay stars, never coins: nothing in the game is worth anything outside it
- Plus, an optional subscription for regular players, never decides a level: everyone climbs by the same rules
- No ads, no analytics, no tracking, and no account of its own
- Every word and puzzle ships inside the game, so it plays offline
The App Store shows every price in your region before you pay, and the Wallet lists every price before you spend a coin.
Bank or climb
After every level you choose: keep the stars you carry, or take them into the next level for more. Fall short of a target and the stars you carried are lost.
Easy, Medium or Hard
Picked before each climb. Easy keeps to everyday words; Hard brings in the formal and literary ones, with faster clocks and more stars.
Today's ladder
One word ladder a day, the same for everyone, beside the climb. If you want it, one reminder when tomorrow's is ready, and nothing else.
