The Sky Words daily puzzle for January 28, 2026 holds 13 words, listed below with their letter counts. The longest is CADENCE at 7 letters.
As with the main game, every answer is built from a single shared letter set, so the quickest way to find a missing word is to match the length of the slot you are stuck on against the list below rather than reading it end to end.

How Word City Works
The rules that decide what counts on any Word City day.
Read the letter set
Every answer uses only these letters. Anything outside the set is impossible.
Build from the longest
The longest word usually uses the whole set and contains several shorter answers inside it.
Sweep the short words
Two and three letter answers are easy to overlook and are usually what is blocking completion.
Word City Tips & Strategy
Starting with what today's puzzle in particular rewards.
Longest today is CADENCE
At 7 letters it uses most of the set — place it first and the shorter answers follow from the crossings.
The letter set is the filter
Check your candidate against the set before anything else. A single letter outside it rules the word out completely.
Longest answer anchors the level
Find the word that uses the whole set first — the rest are usually rearrangements of part of it.
Letters can repeat
Where the set shows a letter twice, it can be used twice. Doubles open up words people miss.
Count before you guess
Every answer here shows its letter count. Match it against the slot and most candidates disappear.
Daily plays the same way
The daily puzzle uses the same mechanic, so strategy carries straight across.
