Get ready to make words, or get ready to jump in lava! In this super fun and tense arcade game, you are playing against 7 other players to escape the lava. Every round, you get a couple of letters in the circle in front of you. You need to make as many words as possible with those letters. Every letter you get in a word, is one block that you will rise. Escape the lava, and win in this casual game.

How to play Words or Die

You start off with your feet right above the lava. Make words with the first three letters that you get, and you will rise up. Each round, the lava rises up a certain amount of blocks. If you haven’t made enough words, and the lava touches you, you get taken out of the game! Make sure that you have made enough words. Think of any word possible, and try to see if it works! 

In the later rounds, you get more letters to make bigger words. But the lava will also move more blocks at the same time. So you will need to keep on making as many words as possible to go as high as possible. Can you win as many rounds as possible in Words or Die?
