Stackdown tips and tricks

Stackdown rewards order and restraint. One revealed word can expose the letters you need for the next answer without spoiling the full stack.

01

Start with exposed letters

The first playable word must come from the currently exposed top tiles, so ignore letters buried under the stack until they become available.

02

Use clue tone

Stackdown clues are often short definitions with a little personality. Read the clue for the direct meaning first, then test common five-letter matches.

03

Watch repeated letters

A tile can only be used once, so repeated letters in a word need separate exposed tiles.

04

Reveal one word only

If you are stuck, open a single answer and use the cleared tiles to keep solving the rest naturally.

05

Think in removal order

The word order matters. Solving an early word changes which tiles are visible for the next answer.
