About this game
Missing Letters is a live word game: each round shows a word with gaps, and players drag the right letters into place on their phone. The fastest correct answers climb the leaderboard, so a vocabulary check feels like a race. It works for spelling in a classroom and for key terms in a training session.
How Missing Letters works
Missing Letters is a single scored slide. Add your words once and replay it with every group:
- Add the words or terms you want players to complete.
- Launch the slide; the join code appears on the presenter view.
- Players drag the missing letters into each word from their phone.
- The leaderboard shows who finished fastest.
Best for
Missing Letters fits any session where the words themselves are the thing to learn:
- Teachers: spelling practice, foreign language vocabulary and subject key terms.
- Corporate trainers: product names, compliance terms and new jargon.
- Event hosts: a quick word round between longer activities.
- Onboarding leads: company terms and team names for new starters.
Why teams love Missing Letters
Missing Letters asks players to recall a word, not just recognise it:
- Tests recall: players have to work out the letters themselves.
- Quick to run: each word takes seconds, so it fits between other activities.
- Easy to reuse: swap the word list for the next class or cohort.
- A real race: the leaderboard rewards speed, which keeps everyone playing.
Free to try, with no sign-up to play: tap and start filling in the letters.
