WordShift

Shift one letter. Keep both words real.

Pick up the L in PLAY. Drop it into PANT. Now you have PAY and PLANT, and a fox by the fire looks very pleased with you.

WordShift is a cozy word puzzle game built on one small move: take a letter from one word and place it in the next, and both words must stay real. Every puzzle you solve earns amber to build a pixel-art house, room by room, for 13 animal housemates who walk around their rooms, talk about their day and pick up the conversation where you left off.

It’s a cozy game. Mostly. The house keeps a few secrets.
