Game of Words Level 5,996 sits in Levels 5501-6000 and holds 11 words, the longest answer being DABBED at 6 letters. A mid-sized level, where each answer placed meaningfully constrains the ones still open.

Every answer below carries its letter count, which is the fastest way to match an empty slot: counting the squares in a gap and scanning for that exact length beats reading the list from the top. Answers are listed in the order the game accepts them, so the page reads the way the level plays.

6 of the 11 answers run to three letters or fewer, which is where levels like this are usually lost. The long answers go in quickly; it is the short ones filling the gaps between them that get missed, because they are easy to read straight past.

This level sits in the 5,901–6,000 block, with level 5,995 and level 5,997 linked at the foot of the page.

How to play

How Game of Words Works

The same three moves solve most Game of Words puzzles, including this one.

1

Confirm the board

Check the longest answer against your screen before trusting a level number at this depth.

2

Anchor the long word

It uses the whole set and fixes the crossings that constrain everything still open.

3

Sweep by length

Counting the empty squares beats reading the answer list from the top.

Game of Words Tips & Strategy

Starting with what this particular level teaches you.

1

This chain has 11 links

Fill the answers you are sure of first — each confirmed link constrains its neighbours far more than the clue alone.

2

Longest answer is DABBED

At 6 letters it is the most constrained slot on the level, which usually makes it the easiest to place.

3

Confirm before you trust the number

With eleven thousand levels it is easy to be a screen off. The longest answer on the page is the quickest check.

4

Later sets are longer

The letter sets grow through the game, so a level that feels unusually hard may simply be further in than you thought.

5

Endings are free answers

S, ED, ER and ING on a placed stem regularly account for several of the words still missing.

6

Short words are the blockers

Long answers come first and easily. It is the three-letter words filling the gaps that hold a board open.
