Wordee
Guess the hidden word in six tries.
One hidden word and a room full of opinions about vowels. Project it as your morning starter and watch the arguments get surprisingly rigorous.

How to play
Guess the hidden word in six tries.
That's the goal — no rules to teach. Here's how a round of Wordee runs.
2
Green = right spot, yellow = wrong spot.
Green means right letter, right spot; yellow means it’s in the word but somewhere else; grey rules it out. The on-screen keyboard keeps every colour, so nothing’s forgotten.
Use the clues to crack it within six goes.
Six guesses, plus one AI clue to lean on when the room gets stuck. Each guess narrows the field until the last row lands all-green.
Ways to play
One hidden word, three ways to crack it
The same Wordee works as a front-of-class solve, a live device race, or take-home practice. Pick at press-play — nothing to rebuild.
On the big screen
Project one board and the whole class cracks it together — students call out guesses (and argue about vowels) while you type. No devices, no setup, no codes.
Zero devices · zero prepLive on their devices
Students go to boardee.app/join and type the six-digit code — phones, tablets, chromebooks, any browser. Everyone races the same hidden word, and the leaderboard ranks who cracks it in the fewest guesses.

The library
Wordee is one shape of twenty-five

- 25 game types, from quiz shows to word puzzles
- One topic box fills any of them in under a minute
- Save your rounds and relaunch them any lesson

FAQ
Good to know
Is this like Wordle?
It plays exactly the way your students expect — six guesses, green and yellow tiles — but the hidden word is yours: any topic, any grade level.
Is it solo or whole-class?
Both work. It's built as a solo puzzle, so each student can play self-paced from a shared link — or project one board and solve it together, guess by guess.
Can AI pick words on my topic?
Yes. Ask for words from your unit and grade level and it fills the list in under a minute, or type your own — this week's spelling words are a favorite.
Is it free?
Yes. Every game type is included on Boardee's free tier, Wordee included.
Do students need accounts?
Never. Students join with a code and a name — no emails, no passwords. Teachers don't need an account to try it either.
