How do I play a nest?

• Drag your finger through the letters on the wheel to spell a word, then let go. Drag back over the last letter to un-pick it.
• Words that belong in the nest fill in on the crossword. Fill every word to finish the nest.
• Any other real word (3+ letters) is a bonus word: Quill hoots, a feather drops in the jar and you earn coins.
• Shuffle (bottom-left) rearranges the wheel. The jar (top-left) lists the bonus words you've found.
• No hints means three stars; one hint two stars; more hints one star. Nests can't be failed, so take your time.

What are coins and hints?

• Coins come only from playing: +10 for every nest, +3 per bonus word, +25 every time the jar fills (10 feathers), +20 for the first Daily solve each day.
• A hint (the bulb, top-right of the wheel) costs 30 coins and reveals one letter in the nest. In the Daily Crossword, Reveal letter works the same way.
• There is nothing to buy in the game, ever.

How do I switch to Hinglish (or back to English)?

Tap the language chip at the top of the home screen, or use Settings → Language. Each language has its own 156 nests and its own Daily Crossword; your stars are kept per language.

Hinglish means everyday Hindi words written in Roman letters — chai, dost, khushi, mausam. Spellings follow the most common way people type them; if a word you know is spelled differently, try the usual alternatives (acha / achha). Hindi in Devanagari script is planned for a later update.

How does the Daily Crossword work?

• Tap Daily Crossword on the home screen. Tap a square, type with the on-screen keyboard, and tap the same square again to switch between across and down. The arrows move between clues; All clues lists them.
• The tick key checks your letters: wrong ones flash red. The puzzle finishes by itself when every square is right.
• A new puzzle arrives at midnight UTC (it may be the evening or early morning where you live). Everyone in the world gets the same grid that day.
• Your streak grows by one the first time you solve each day's puzzle in either language. Miss a day and the next solve starts a new streak at 1; your best streak is remembered. The calendar shows a feather on every solved day.
• Your half-finished grid is saved, so you can come back to it later the same day.

What is the reminder?

In Settings (or on the streak calendar) you can switch on a gentle reminder: one notification at 6 pm reminding you about the Daily. It is off by default, it is scheduled by your phone, and it never sends anything anywhere. Switch it off any time in the same place.

What is the Zen Nest?

Endless nests made fresh on your device with calm music — no stars, no clock. Bonus words still fill the jar. Stop from the pause menu whenever you like; your best run is remembered.

What are nest styles?

Tile colour styles for the nest and wheel, unlocked with stars: Parchment (start), Meadow (30), Lantern (90), Moonlit (180) and Golden (300). Tap Nests on the home screen.

Big text and calm effects

Settings → Big text makes tiles, wheel letters and clues larger. Calm effects turns off most feathers, sparkles and shakes (it follows your phone's reduce-motion setting by default).

Is it safe for kids?

Yes. No ads, no accounts, no chat, no personal data, no in-app purchases. Every word list is filtered through a family-safe blocklist, and links that leave the game sit behind a grown-up check.
