🎮 What is Oneaway?

Oneaway is a daily word puzzle game that challenges you to connect two words by changing one letter at a time. Each step must form a valid English word, and your goal is to find the shortest path from the start word to the end word.

Example: Connect "WORD" to "GENE"
WORD → WORE → GORE → GONE → GENE

🎯 Game Features

  • Multiple Difficulty Levels: Choose Easy, Normal, or Hard puzzles. Harder puzzles include tricky moves where you must change a letter that doesn't match the final word.
  • Daily Challenge: A new, hard puzzle every day for you to solve and share with friends
  • Hints & Undos: Get help when you're stuck or undo your moves to try a different path
  • Progress Tracking: Visual feedback shows how efficient your solution was
  • Stats & Leaderboards: Track your performance and see how you compare against friends
  • Share Your Results: Show off your solving skills with emoji grids on social media

💡 How to Play

1. Look at the start word (top) and end word (bottom)
2. Type a valid word that differs by only one letter from the previous word
3. Keep connecting words until you reach the end word
4. Try to solve it in as few moves as possible!

Pro tip: Think strategically about which letters to change first. Sometimes the shortest path requires thinking several moves ahead!
