Clueful
Word lists

Say it without saying it.

Describe a word in English, Korean or Spanish. Coco the parrot listens as you type and tries to guess. Fewer words, more stars.

Coming soon on the App Store

How to play

  1. 1

    See the word

    You get a secret word and four taboo words you can't use.

  2. 2

    Describe it

    Write a clue in the language you're practicing. No spelling hints, no translations.

  3. 3

    Coco guesses

    His hunch climbs as you type. The fewer words you need, the more stars you earn.

Beat a friend on the same word

Finish a round and send the word to a friend. They play it blind, and you both see who needed fewer words. Every word also has its own world ranking.

Five words a day, the same for everyone

The daily five changes at midnight. Keep a streak, share your result, and watch your explanations get shorter.

Practice English, Korean or Spanish

Coco understands clues in all three. Explaining around a word you don't know is the skill real conversations need most.

Questions

Is Clueful free?

Yes. Clueful will be free to download. The daily five, friend challenges, world rankings, badges and 10 quick rounds a day are free. An optional Clueful Plus will add unlimited quick play, themed word packs and a practice report.

Which languages can I practice?

English, Korean and Spanish. You can switch the language you practice at any time.

Does it actually help me learn a language?

It trains the skill real conversations need most: explaining a word you can't remember. Coco only understands you if your explanation works, so you get honest feedback on every clue.

How does Coco understand my clues?

Coco is an AI judge. Your clue is sent to our server and to Jev, an AI service by TypeSafe, which scores how likely each word in the category is. We ask for your permission before your first round.

Do you keep my clues?

We don't store clues with your identity. See the privacy policy for the details.

When is it coming to Android?

Clueful launches on iPhone, iPad and Mac first. Android is planned next.

Can I use the word lists for a party game?

Yes. Every category has a free word list with the words you can't say, ready for a describe-it game with friends.
