Cemantle rules in short
- Type any word
Your first guesses are just to find a warm area.
- Check the temperature
Cold or below zero means unrelated. The higher the degrees, the closer the meaning.
- Watch the per mille
When a guess is among the 1,000 nearest words, a number up to 1,000 shows how near it is.
- Follow the heat
Guess words linked to your hottest ones until you hit the secret word.

The temperature scale
| Reading | What it means |
|---|---|
| Below zero | Not related at all |
| Mild | Some link, keep looking nearby |
| Hot | Among the closest words |
| 1,000 per mille | The secret word itself |
Escaping a cold start
If your first ten guesses are all cold, stop guessing at random. Pick broad words that cover a lot of ground, and one of them usually warms up.
- Things: food, money, tool, house
- People: body, family, job, feeling
- Ideas: time, music, sport, law
From a warm word, move in small steps and keep a note of your three hottest guesses.

Ways to get better at Cemantle
- Try very different areas first: an animal, a feeling, a job, a place, a tool.
- Hot words share how they are used, not always what they mean. Opposites can score well.
- Use the nearest words list after you win to see how the model thinks.
- A jump in temperature after a small change tells you which idea mattered. Keep that idea and change the other one.
