Word association and category games
This cluster comprises word puzzle games centered on associating, grouping, and linking words by theme or category, including connection-style grids and solitaire-card hybrids. Entries appear sporadically from 2011, with a concentration of new products starting in mid-2025. All tracked products show minimal traction signals (0 stars), with Word MindSort: Solitaire, Word Connect Association, and Merge Bubbles - Word Game listed as the top activity signals.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
