Squeezy Word Game – Free Daily Word Puzzle
Squeezy is a free daily word puzzle built around word insertion, created by Jeff Chen and Jim Horne. Every puzzle gives you yellow letter tiles and a stack of words with open spaces inside them. Squeeze each tile into a word to make a brand-new word, then read the inserted letters from top to bottom to discover a hidden theme.
Insert tiles to make new words
Click a yellow tile, then click a green space to insert it. Every insertion must leave a real word behind, and tiles always go inside a word rather than on either end. For example, Y turns SPAS into SPAYS and E turns GUST into GUEST.
The tiles reveal a hidden theme
Read from top to bottom, the letters you insert spell a secret word, phrase, or name. Spotting that connection early can help you crack the trickiest remaining words.
Choose your Squeezy
Easy Squeezy is one quick round. Main Squeezy is the full three-round challenge, moving from easy to peasy to squeezy. In Breezy Mode you get exactly the tiles you need; Wheezy Mode adds a devious decoy tile.
