Match three

Spanish Word Crush.

Easy

Read the English clue, then swap neighbouring tiles to line up three of the same Spanish word. Clear the one that matches the clue for a big score; every swap costs a move, so choose them well.

Score Moves Clue / 🔥
Clear the tiles that mean
Tap a tile, then a neighbour, or swipe a tile, to swap them. Three or more of the same word in a row or column clear.

How to play

  1. Read the English word at the top — that is the clue.
  2. The board is a grid of tiles, each showing a Spanish word. Tap a tile and then a neighbouring tile, or swipe a tile towards its neighbour, to swap the two.
  3. If the swap lines up three or more of the same word in a row or a column, those tiles clear, the ones above fall and new ones drop in. A swap that clears nothing goes back, but still costs a move.
  4. Clear the word that matches the clue for triple points. Any other line scores a little, and when new tiles fall into a line, the combo multiplier goes up.
  5. Clear six clues before your twenty-four moves run out. Each cleared clue is read out loud and a new word joins the board.

Questions

Is this Spanish match-3 game free?

Yes — Word Crush plays in your browser, on a phone or a computer, with no sign-up. Sign in only to save the words you meet to your review deck.

Do I have to clear the word in the clue?

No, any line of three or more clears. But only a line of the clue's word scores triple and moves you towards the six you need, so look for it first.

What if I cannot find the clue's word?

After a few seconds without a move, the game shows a swap that clears it. A clue that nobody clears within eight moves is dropped, with no penalty, and you get a new one.

Can the board get stuck?

No. If no swap is left, or no swap clears the clue's word, the board is reshuffled for you.

Can I practise one topic?

Yes. Use the theme picker to draw the words from a single category — animals, food, the home and more.
