About Categories Word Game

Categories Word Game is an independent daily word puzzle site built around original 16-word boards, clear hints, complete answer keys, and a searchable archive.

What we publish

Each puzzle asks players to sort 16 words into 4 exact categories. Every board has a play page, a spoiler-light hints page, and an answer page with short explanations.

Why the site exists

The goal is to make a lightweight word game that works well on phone and desktop, stays free to play, and makes dated hints or answers easy to find.

Independence
