About Freestyle
Short Description
Freestyle is a free daily word game where players find 7 rhymes for the word of the day. Longer words score more points.
Long Description
Freestyle is a browser-based word game that presents players with a new target word each day. The goal is to find 7 words that rhyme with it, using phonetic matching (based on sound, not spelling). Longer words and multi-syllable answers earn higher scores. The game includes daily leaderboards, streak tracking, and shareable results. Built in late 2023 by Taq Karim as a birthday gift for his wife—her idea, his code. Free to play, no account required, works on any device.
