Keyword

Keyword is a word-guessing game from The Washington Post in which players must guess the identify of a six-letter word by figuring out the missing letter in six other words. The screen presents a crossword-puzzle-like arrangement of six words arranged in vertical rows, all with one letter missing. The missing letters of all six are aligned in one horizontal row; this is the word that the player must ultimately guess. The player has an unlimited amount of guesses, but the game does keep track of how many guesses they've used and there is a timer in the corner. Each day the game presents a different puzzle, and players can access up to a week's worth of the previous installments.
