Learning
Discover. Review. Remember.

Discoveries
Every valid word can unlock a definition, pronunciation, and rarity card. Your library grows as you play — not from flashcard decks you never open.
Vocab Review
Spaced practice on words you've found. Active recall with multiple-choice definitions so play turns into memory.
Mastery that moves
Definition Match, Word Worlds, and review feed the same progress. Words climb from new → learning → mastered.
