How it works

Three steps. One stolen alphabet. Endless proverbs.

1

Read the clues

Each round shows a famous proverb, quote, or saying with some or all of its vowels removed. A category badge hints at what you're solving.

2

Drag vowels into place

Pick from the vowel tray and drop each letter onto the right word. Careful — some vowels in the tray are decoys that don't belong anywhere.

3

Beat the clock

Fill every blank and hit check before time runs out. Faster solves earn a bigger time bonus. Chase your high score across 20 rounds.
