How to play
Quick guide to play and scoring
Thread is a compact daily word game. Start with the seed word and add one related word each turn. Each hop is scored; aim for meaningful, not random, leaps.
Quick steps
- View today’s seed word.
- Enter one related word (no spaces, max 20 chars).
- Up to 5 submissions per run.
- Submit with a 4-letter alias to post the run.
Scoring
Synonyms are close (low score). Random words are far (low score). The best moves travel meaningfully while remaining coherent.
Tips
- Use context switches (role, place, material) to move farther.
- Short, concrete words often produce clearer embeddings.
