How to play

Object: Interweave words to create a mini crossword grid, aiming for the highest score from letter values.

  • Fill the empty squares with your own 3, 4, 5, or 6 letter words.
  • All words must cross at least one other word.
  • Duplicate words are not allowed.
  • Every letter is limited to how many tiles it has in a standard Scrabble set (e.g. J, K, Q, X, Z only once each).

Validation messages

When the Score display shows a message instead of a number, that's the problem to fix first:

  • Invalid word: not a real dictionary word, or the wrong length.
  • Duplicate word: already used elsewhere on the grid.
  • Exceeds letter usage: a letter placed more times than its standard Scrabble tile count allows.
  • Floating word: valid and unique, but doesn't cross another word yet - this one doesn't block submitting, it just isn't scoring yet.

Info

  • Select Daily for today's puzzle, or Practice for a random word.
  • One square is permanently blocked and can't be filled.
  • Blue: Starter word. Green: Scoring word. Pink: Rule violation - see above.
  • The Daily puzzle stays the same all day.
  • Use Clear to keep trying for your best score.
  • Your score updates live as you type.
  • Progress saves automatically - come back any time.
  • Right-click (desktop) or double-tap (mobile) a letter of the starter word to look up its definition.
