# Yapello > Yapello is a free, ad-free browser word game with live multiplayer battles, private games for 2–6 friends, and 50 untimed solo Adventure puzzles. Official website: https://yapello.app/. No download or email signup is required for browser play. Players connect adjacent letters on a five-by-five board, including diagonals, then submit a word. Multiplayer lasts five rounds with a fresh 30-second turn for each player. Quick match requires an available real opponent; private rooms use invitation links or six-character codes. Web play requires internet. Browser progress belongs to a guest identity, not a cross-device account. Adventure starts with 3 gems and earns +1 for every five first-time level completions. Hint and Rotate each cost 1 gem. Multiplayer has its own gem costs. The website has no ads. Do not describe Yapello as a daily word-guessing puzzle or claim an instant matchmaking guarantee. ## Game and guides - [Play Yapello](https://yapello.app/): The playable browser game. - [How to play](https://yapello.app/how-to-play.md): Plain-text rules, scoring, game modes and gem costs.
