1,501 entriesWhat is Contexto?
Contexto is a daily word game with no letters to match. You guess a secret word and the game tells you how close your guess is in meaning, ranked by a language model: rank 1 is the answer, rank 2 is the closest related word, and a guess of 3,000 is a long way off. There is no limit on guesses, so the challenge is efficiency.
The English game launched in September 2022 and is numbered daily; separate Portuguese and Spanish editions have their own words.
How to play Contexto
Type any word. The game shows its rank, with green for close, yellow for medium and red for far. Use each rank to steer your next guess towards the theme. Keep going until a guess returns rank 1.
When does the new Contexto come out?
A new Contexto unlocks at midnight in your local time zone. We publish hints and answers as soon as the puzzle is available and keep every previous day in the archive above.
Contexto strategy and tips
