🎮 What Is Contexto?
Contexto is a free daily word game where your job is to find one secret word using unlimited guesses. Instead of letter clues like Wordle, you get a rank number — the lower the rank, the closer your word is in meaning to the answer. Rank 1 means you found it.
Rank-Based Feedback
Every guess returns a rank. Rank 1 = secret word. Rank 500 = far away. No letter clues — pure meaning.
Powered by AI
Word embeddings rank every word by semantic similarity. “Dog” and “puppy” rank close — even without shared letters.
New Word Daily
One secret word every day, same for everyone worldwide. Resets at midnight. Streak tracks consecutive wins.
Unlimited Guesses
No guess limit. No timer. No pressure. Solve in 10 guesses or 100 — the game waits for you.
📖 How to Play Contexto — 5 Steps
1
Open the game at contexto.uk and type any English word. Start broad — try animal, place, or thing first.
2
Read the rank number. Low = close. High = far. Check the Closest Words tab — it shows your best guesses sorted from nearest to furthest.
3
Follow the direction. If your last guess improved your rank, keep going that way. If it got worse, turn back and try a different angle.
4
Narrow it down. Once you have a word ranked below 50, try synonyms and close relatives. You are in the right neighbourhood — look for the exact word.
5
Find rank 1 to win. Use the Hint button if stuck — it reveals a word closer than your current best without giving the answer away.
