The little details.

Travel between four-letter words. Every button changes exactly one letter of the current word; only words in this game’s explicit lexicon are available. Reach the harbor within the step budget. Unused steps add merit. Each successful crossing starts the next, for six harbors total. Running out of steps spends a voyage. Undo costs one step; retry spends a voyage and restarts the same crossing. Three spent voyages end the run. Keyboard 1–8 picks the displayed choices.

P/Escape pauses. M changes sound. Inactive tabs and changed screen widths pause play. Sound, haptics and reduced motion are in the pause settings.
