One word a day · same puzzle as the app

The Daily Word

A Catholic or biblical word in five letters. Six guesses. Solve it and learn what it means.

How to play

Guess the five-letter word in six tries. Every word is Catholic or biblical — a saint, a sacrament, a book of Scripture, a term from the Mass. After each guess the tiles tell you how close you were: green means the letter is right and in the right place, yellow means the letter is in the word but somewhere else, grey means it is not in the word at all.

There is one puzzle a day, the same one for everybody, and it changes at midnight. Finish it and you can share your grid without spoiling the answer.

Frequently asked

Is it free?

Yes, and there is nothing to install. The same puzzle is in the Liturgical Living app, where it keeps your streak along with seven other daily Catholic games.

Where do the words come from?

A hand-built list of Catholic and biblical five-letter words — no proper nouns you would need a concordance to guess. Each finished puzzle ends with a line about what the word means.

Is there a new one every day?

One a day, at midnight in your own time zone.
