Six on the Dial

Why it surfaced

This is a hand-authored game with 118 boards across 14 themes, each built around a specific subject rather than a generic word list. Its clues draw from Black American cultural life, including an Eastern Carolina whole-hog barbecue board, giving the familiar daily word-game format a real editorial point of view.

A six-letter word game that asks players to find every word on a daily letter wheel and fill six themed rows.
