Guess the daily Braille word in six tries. Enter a Braille word with the correct number of cells, then use the feedback from each guess to solve the puzzle. After every guess, only the correct dots in the correct positions remain, while incorrect dots disappear. Correct dots accumulate with each attempt, helping you uncover the answer.
Think in Braille dots—not letters.
Contractable is a free daily word game built for braille readers, inspired by Wordle but designed around Grade 2 Unified English Braille (UEB) — the contracted braille system used by fluent braille readers worldwide. Instead of guessing individual letters, players guess five-cell braille words using standard UEB contractions, the same shorthand symbols found in braille textbooks, signage, and everyday braille reading materials.
Each day brings a new contracted braille word to solve. Contractable works directly with refreshable braille displays and screen readers like VoiceOver, making it one of the few word games designed accessibility-first rather than retrofitted for accessibility afterward. Every interaction — from entering guesses to reading results — is built to work naturally for braille display users and screen reader users alike.
The game is ideal for braille learners practicing Grade 2 contractions, teachers of the visually impaired (TVIs) looking for classroom warm-up activities, transcribers maintaining contraction fluency, and sighted developers curious how contracted braille compares to print English. Six guesses, one word a day, and immediate feedback on which contractions and cells are correct.
Whether you're a longtime braille reader or just discovering how contracted braille works, Contractable offers a quick, engaging way to build contraction recognition skills one puzzle at a time.
