Words With Friends Adds “Letter Lock” Mode –Your Newest Daily Wordplay Obsession
Words With Friends delivers another exciting solo puzzle mode
San Mateo, CA – April 30, 2025 – Zynga Inc., a wholly-owned publishing label of Take-Two Interactive (NASDAQ: TTWO) and a global leader in interactive entertainment, today announced Letter Lock, a brand new single-player game mode in Words With Friends. Letter Lock joins the growing suite of single-player modes available in Words With Friends that are transforming the iconic word game into an all-in-one destination for wordplay enthusiasts around the world.
Letter Lock is an engaging daily puzzle where players create words by moving columns of letters vertically to unlock more columns and create longer words. The puzzle is complete when the player unlocks all columns and reaches the required word count goal for each word length. Letter Lock brings a fresh challenge to the beloved daily word game ritual and expands the iconic game’s suite of single-player games.
“The new Letter Lock daily puzzle feature is a testament to Zynga’s continued creative investment in Words With Friends that’s informed by feedback from our dedicated fan base,” said Yaron Leyvand, Executive Vice President, Mobile Games, Zynga. “I strongly believe delivering fresh experiences for players is the key to continuous engagement and the long-term success of the title as an entertainment phenomenon.”
For more than a decade, Words With Friends has brought people together through clever competition and a shared love of words. In November 2024, the game leveled up with the introduction of solo modes – daily puzzles that can be solved at your own pace. Fan-favorite word games, like Mini Crosswords, Word Wheel, Guess Word, and Word Search, have given players even more ways to play, and the response has been overwhelmingly positive. In fact, up to 70% of players gravitate towards starting a Word Search before diving into the classic player vs. player gameplay, showing the benefits of offering more ways to flex skills and fill the time between turns of the classic gameplay.
Words With Friends is available on iOS and Android for download.
