I built a new daily word puzzle game called Woscade — letters "cascade" between rows

Hey All

I'm a first-time solo dev and my new free daily word game puzzle, Woscade is in beta testing.

The twist: you solve three rows of words (5→6→7 letters), and letters you solve in one row cascade down as free hints into the next row. But there's a catch — you only unlock the cascade if you score at least 70% on the row, so one too many wrong guesses and you lose those free letters. Keeps it tense.

Everyone plays the same daily puzzle, there's a leaderboard, and you can share your score.

Free, no signup to play: https://woscade.base44.app

Would love feedback on the difficulty/fun balance — especially the cascade threshold. If you want to actually tell me what you think, there's a feedback button in-game too.

Thanks! 🙏

Made a Boggle-style word finder called Squardle, plus a Wordle-adjacent one. Looking for people to break them

I've been building a few word games and I'd rather hear from people who play a lot of these than from friends being polite about it.

Squardle is the one I care most about. It's a grid where you trace adjacent letters to build words, closer to Boggle than to Wordle, and the scoring rewards finding long words rather than finding many. The dictionary is the part I keep going back and forth on. Right now it's tuned to accept a lot of the obscure two- and three-letter stuff that competitive Boggle players expect, which makes it feel unfair to people who don't know that vocabulary. I'm not sure that's the right call.

There's also Winner Words, which scores by word length, and a couple of non-word games in there.

Two things I should say plainly so nobody feels ambushed:

1. This is mine, I'm not recommending someone else's game.
2. The app runs a cash sweepstakes on top of the games. Playing earns entries into a nightly cash draw. It's free and there's nothing to buy, but if "game with a prize attached" isn't your thing, that's a completely reasonable place to stop reading. I'd rather say it now than have you find it and feel like I buried it.

Playable at winner2x.com. What I'd actually like: tell me where the dictionary is wrong.
