Least Said

A well-known English saying hides behind blank tiles, one per word. Turn over as few as you dare, name it, and find out where it came from.

How to play

Each tile hides one word of a familiar saying and shows how many letters it has. Click a tile to reveal that word wherever it appears, then type the words still hidden and submit your guess. The fewer telling words you needed to see, the more the solve is worth.

Scoring

Your score is the share of the saying you solved without seeing, plus a speed bonus against a par time set by the saying's length. Each wrong guess costs points. Hard mode hides the letter counts and pays half as much again.

Modes
Why English only

Least Said is built on English sayings as English speakers actually say them. A proverb translated into another language is no longer the phrase anyone would recognise, so this game is not translated. Other languages will get their own games built from their own native sayings.
