Ants are invading the kitchen, heading straight for every snack that’s fallen on the floor. To mark their route, they use words—favoring long ones that let them move faster and reach the food before their rivals. This is going to be a word buffet!

Word Buffet is a fast-paced word game where players score victory points by connecting their nest to different food tokens using chains of words. Use your magnifying glass to reveal the letters on the board and quickly find the word that will help you reach your goal.
