About Quintessential

In the world of puzzle games, some outstanding names are Wordle, Strands NYT, Spellie, etc. These famous word-guessing games feature separate gameplay and hint-giving methods, which make them fascinating and unique to players. Here, we would like to introduce you to Quintessential, a word-guessing game with impressive and creative gameplay rather than just typing the guessed word.

In the game, players will have to figure out all the hidden words of the game via the given shuffled letters. Commonly, word puzzles are not too complicated and overwhelming as they may seem, so even newcomers to word-guessing games can enjoy solving puzzles in the game.

How To Play The Quintessential Game

The Quintessential game is designed with a layout of a 5x5 grid containing random letters placed in shuffled positions. Five rows of the grid are equivalent to 5 secret words players have to discover in the game. You need to notice the word placed above the grid. It will indicate the general theme of today's Quintessential puzzle, which means the hidden words will be words related to the theme.

Although a word-guessing game, it will be more likely to be called a word-arranging game due to the gameplay. Instead of typing the guessed word like other word games, players will make their word guesses in the game by dragging letters into locations that make them become valid English words.

In the Quintessential game, there won't be any restriction on the guessing times players can make. You can try any possible word arrangement if you want to figure out all the hidden words. However, the number of guesses you spend on guessing will be used to evaluate your performance.

Meanings Of Colors In The Quintessential Game

  • The green color is applied to letters that are perfectly put in the location, which means the hidden word in the row must contain the green letter. For this reason, you can't move the green letters, just leave them there.
  • The gray color indicates letters that are put in the wrong position. The gray letters should be put in another position on the grid.
  • The yellow color is also a sign of a wrongly located letter, but you have to adjust the position of the yellow letter within the row it is staying, not in another row.
