How to play Linkudo Scroll down to play
Press Play (registered players should sign-in first). The object is to connect the subject word in Box 1 to the target word in Box 2. There are multiple ways to connect the two words - the skill is using the fewest possible links in the shortest possible time.

The subject word in Box 1 is associated with each of the link words currently displayed in the Related, Resident and Rhyming columns. Select and click on the link word from one of these three columns that you think will take you one step nearer to reaching the target word.

Each time a link word is selected it is placed in the left column under Box 1. It then becomes the new subject word and the link words displayed in the Related, Resident and Rhyming columns are replaced with new link words associated with the new subject word. Keep repeating this process and evolve the subject word until the target word is displayed in one of the Related, Resident or Rhyming columns.

When you see the target word displayed in one of these three columns, click on it and the game will end automatically. You will then be taken to the results page where your game stats will be displayed along with your score for that go.

Remember, Linkudo is free to play. All we ask is that if you enjoy Linkudo please encourage at least three friends to have a go!

Top Linkudo Tips
1. The solution will more often than not be found by using a combination of Related, Resident and Rhyming links.
2. At the start of a game, use the ‘Switch’ button to look at the words associated with the word
in Box 2.

When you have finished playing Linkudo, you do not have to log-out. This includes if another player wants to play Linkudo on your computer after you've finished playing. When they sign-in, it overrides your previous sign-in.

As long as there are no link words selected you can switch the word in Box 1 with the word in
Box 2 by clicki
ng ‘Switch’. You can also remove the previously selected link word by clicking ‘Remove’. If you get completely stuck you can hit the ‘Pass’ button and move onto a new game.

Each time you 'pass' a score of -500 is assigned to that game. For example, if you scored 765, then 540 then you passed the next game, your three consecutive game score total for those three games would be 805 (765+540-500=805).

The 'Related’ words comprise a selection of words you might expect to directly associate with the subject word. For instance, Collar, Kennel, Bone and Bark are just some of the words you'll find related to Dog. Please note though, a few random words have been included just for good measure!

‘Resident’ words contain the subject word, or are found within the subject word.

‘Rhyming’ words rhyme with the subject word - and are either perfect or non-perfect rhymes. Perfect rhymes generally appear above the dotted line and non-perfect rhymes appear below the dotted line.

Please note, as so many people have different connection speeds Linkudo uses a 'stop the clock' procedure every time the Related, Resident and Rhyming word lists are refreshed. This means people with faster connection speeds will have no advantage over people with slower connection speeds.

There is always a solution, just be patient and work through the permutations.
