Samey

Find a word that means the same as

How to play

You get a word. Find the hidden word that means the same thing.
Each clue tells you what kind of word you're after: a thing word (like chair), a doing word (like run) or a describing word (like happy). The answer is the same kind of word, which helps when a clue could mean two things.
Puzzles start gentle on Monday and get tougher through to Friday. Weekends are medium.
You have 4 goes. Your guess can be any length, but it has to be a real word.
Every letter in your guess that's also in the answer lights up in all its spots, and stays lit.
The letter board shows what you know so far: green letters are in the word, crossed-out letters aren't, and plain ones you haven't tried yet.
Guess a word that means the same but isn't the one we're after? We'll tell you it's close. It still uses a go, and its letters light up like any other guess.
Stuck? A hint fills in part of the word, but uses up a go.
