How It Works

Three steps to find the secret word. No letters, no hints — just meaning.

Propose a Word

Type or speak any word. There are no wrong guesses — every word gives you information.

Read Your Score

Get a temperature from 0 (cold) to 1000 (found it). The closer your word's meaning, the hotter it gets.

Refine & Find

Use your scores to navigate the semantic space. Build a mental map of meaning and zero in on the target.

Icy (0-200)
Cold (200-500)
Warm (500-700)
Hot (700-900)
Burning (900+)
Found! (1000)

Looking for a Semantle Alternative?

QuelMot is everything Semantle does — rebuilt for daily play, with more modes and a real mobile app.

Semantle pioneered the semantic word game genre — guess the hidden word by meaning, not letters, using a word2vec model to score each guess from 0 to 1000. It was a revelation for word game fans looking for something beyond Wordle.

QuelMot brings the same core mechanic — temperature-scored semantic guessing — and builds on it: voice input, daily streaks, live leaderboards, five distinct game modes, and a native Android app that works offline.

If you love Semantle-style games and want something that plays beautifully on mobile, QuelMot is the answer. Same depth, better experience.

Same scoring model

Word2Vec embeddings — temperature 0 to 1000. If you know Semantle, the mechanic is instantly familiar.

Daily + unlimited practice

One word per day at noon (FR timezone) plus Training Mode for unlimited sessions — no waiting 24h.

Wordle + Semantle in one

Already playing Wordle daily? QuelMot is the semantic companion — one more daily puzzle, zero time wasted.

Mobile-first, offline-ready

Native Android app with voice input. Semantle only works in-browser; QuelMot works everywhere.

QuelMot vs. the Competition

Frequently Asked Questions

What is QuelMot?

QuelMot is a free daily semantic word game. Instead of guessing letters like Wordle, you propose words and receive a temperature score (0-1000) based on how close your word's meaning is to the secret word. The closer the meaning, the higher the score.

How is QuelMot different from Cemantix?

QuelMot uses the same semantic model (Fauconnier Word2Vec) for identical scoring accuracy, but offers a mobile-first experience with voice input on Android, real-time live leaderboards, multiple game modes (classic, training, blind, duel), and polished dark/light themes.

Is QuelMot free?

Yes, completely free on the web and Android. No account required. The Android app includes optional rewarded ads for hints — you choose when and if to watch them.

What is the temperature score?

The temperature ranges from 0 (cold, semantically far) to 1000 (exact match). The system uses word embeddings — a mathematical model that maps words by meaning — to measure how semantically close your guess is to the target word.

Can I play with my voice?

Yes! The Android app supports native speech-to-text. Just tap the microphone and say your guesses. Great for accessibility, commuting, or hands-free play.

How often does the word change?

A new secret word is revealed every day at noon (Paris time). You can also play Training Mode anytime with unlimited random words for practice.

What language is QuelMot in?

QuelMot is a French-only game. Both the secret words and the words you propose are in French, and the temperature scoring uses a French semantic model. Looking for the Italian version? Try Fuochino, our Italian semantic word game.
