Word Herd is an exciting multiplayer word game where you compete against others to find words on a shared game board. Score points by finding words, using multiplier tiles, and achieving bonuses!
Points are awarded based on word length. Longer words get score multipliers (5 letters = 1.5x, 6 letters = 2x, 7+ letters = Legendary!). Special tiles like 2x and 3x multiply the score of words using them. High-value letters like Q, Z, and J also grant more points.
You can swipe across adjacent letters (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally) in any sequence to form words. Letters must be connected, but you can twist and turn your path.
Yes! Word Herd is available as a mobile app on both iOS (via the Apple App Store) and Android (via the Google Play Store). We also have this web version!
Yes, Word Herd is free to play. There may be optional in-app purchases for cosmetic items or premium features in the future, but the core gameplay is free.
If you leave a game and return before the timer runs out, your progress is saved. If you leave and do not return before the timer expires, your score for that round will not be recorded. Your score is only finalized if you are present when the game ends.
