The puzzle of August 6, 2026
This was the TrifectaWord daily puzzle for August 6, 2026 — the same one every player in the world was given that day. It ran at a difficulty of hard, and its final word is 5 letters long.
Each of the three columns below hid one answer, and started out showing only its first clue word; the second and third clue words were revealed a letter at a time as players guessed wrong. The three answers were themselves the clues to a single final word that connects all of them. If that structure is new to you, the how to play guide explains it properly.

What a perfect run was worth
A column pays most when it is solved from its first clue alone, and every letter of clue words 2 and 3 you never needed adds to it. Because those clue words differ from day to day, so does the ceiling. On this puzzle it was:
- Column 1 — 730 points (550 for a first-clue solve, plus 4 × 30 and 4 × 15 for the letters never revealed)
- Column 2 — 880 points (550 for a first-clue solve, plus 8 × 30 and 6 × 15 for the letters never revealed)
- Column 3 — 925 points (550 for a first-clue solve, plus 8 × 30 and 9 × 15 for the letters never revealed)
- Final word — 1000 points (500 base, plus a 500 time bonus for finishing with the full clock left)
That is a theoretical maximum of 3535 points, which assumes three cold first-guess column solves, no hints and no wrong answers. The how to play guide works through where each of those numbers comes from.
