About Word Groups
Word Groups is a category-sorting puzzle in the spirit of grouping games: 16 words are shuffled together on one board, and it's up to you to work out which 4 belong to each of 4 hidden categories. Every puzzle draws from the same categories as the rest of the site, shuffled into a fresh set of four each time you play.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I play Word Groups?
You get 16 words that secretly belong to 4 different categories, 4 words each. Select 4 words you think share a category and submit — guess right and that group locks in; guess wrong and you lose one of your 4 mistakes.
What are the categories based on?
The site's own word categories — Animals, Space, Food, Jobs, and so on — so the words themselves are the same ones used across the word search, scramble, and crossword games.
Is Word Groups free to play?
Yes. Like every game on Word Search Games, Word Groups is completely free with no sign-up, no download, and no limit on how many puzzles you play.
