A Glimpse into Word Unknown

Word Unknown takes inspiration from both hangman and mastermind to create an incredibly fun and simple word game experience. Your objective is to guess a randomly generated word in as few moves as possible using both lexical and deductive logic. Once a legal guess is made, you’ll get X’s and O’s in response. Each X represents a correct letter in the correct position, and each O represents a correct letter in the wrong position. There are five different difficulties (word lengths) to choose from and a daily challenge for each so you can compete with friends! Best of all, the game is 100% free and open source!

Word Unknown is the second word game developed by Christopher Cinq-Mars Jarvis. His first is Synonymy, narrated by Richard Dawkins, which received distinctions at GDC and E3.

Brilliant experience, cant get enough. Definitely worth the download.


We enjoy the game but have discovered the occasional buggy wordmy guesses lead to a specific word but the game does not let us enter that word. Two examples are rape and Cuban. For rape we got 4 correct letters for pear, pare, reap, and aper; 3 Xs for rapt and tape but was prevented from entering rape.


We can see it having real educational value.


Not as good as Synonymy, but still fun for wordophiles like us.


Way too addictive! There is a bug preventing one from guessing a proper noun and yet we have gotten stuck in games without end where the word was clearly Hebrew, Muslim, or Mormon.


Very fun and makes you use your full vocabulary!
