Sunday always seems to have some of the more difficult selections of and this week's categories help prove that theory correct. Our daily loss is your gain though as we still unlocked the categories and can help guide others who may be in danger of losing their streak.

If today's game was too easy for you, perhaps try something a little more challenging. is a copycat that forces players to solve four different five-letter words at the same time. Sharing hints and attempts between four puzzles can be a very difficult, but ultimately rewarding, experience.
