How to Play Wend

Simple to learn, genuinely tricky to master.

1

Start anywhere

Tap or click any letter tile to begin tracing a word.

2

Trace neighbors

Extend up, down, left or right. No diagonals. Words bend around the gray walls.

3

Use every tile

All four words together must cover every open cell. It is a tiling puzzle too.

4

Hint, Undo & Reset

Stuck? Reveal a letter with Hint, undo your last step, or Reset to start the same puzzle over. Check the full wend game rules on our How to Play page.

What Makes the LinkedIn Wend Game Different

Every letter is used exactly once

Unlike Boggle where letters are shared, or Strands where some sit unused — in Wend all four words together must cover every open tile on the board. A wrong guess does not just fail, it blocks the rest of the grid.

The walls are the puzzle spine

Gray wall blocks are fixed before you start. They carve the shapes your words must wind through, and guarantee each puzzle has exactly one solution. Part word search, part jigsaw.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Wend game on LinkedIn?
