Letter Brink

Two player word game
2 players, or 1 vs a bot
Phones and computers

Letter Brink is a two player word game that plays in the browser on phones, tablets and computers, for two players on one device, or one player against a bot.

Take turns adding a letter from a shared rack to either end of a fragment without finishing a word. The fragment must stay inside a real word of four to eight letters, and a player who thinks no word can hold it may challenge. Play bots at three levels or a friend on the same device, first to three rounds.

Tips

Letters on the seven-letter rack can be used again and again, so look for words that repeat a letter before you count a move as safe.
Finishing any listed word of four letters or more loses at once, even when a longer word could follow, so RAIN loses although TRAIN exists.
Only challenge when you are sure: if any word spelt from the rack holds the fragment, the game shows it and you lose the round instead.

Which words count?

Words of four to eight letters from the game's own all-ages list of about 5,200 words, spelt only with the rack's letters. Three-letter words never end a round, and the game shows the word it found whenever a challenge fails.

How strong are the bots?

The gentle bot knows only everyday words, so it can lose to a rarer word or challenge one by mistake. The steady bot knows every word and looks three moves ahead, and the sharp bot works out each rack exactly before it moves.
