Game Tips

Basic Strategies

Start with the center letter, as it's mandatory in every word. Try common root combinations, such as adding prefixes (RE-, UN-, IN-) or suffixes (-ING, -ED, -ER) to extend words. Remember that letters can be reused, giving you more word-building possibilities.

Advanced Strategies

Once you've found a word, explore word forms to discover more words. For example, PLAY can be transformed into PLAYS, PLAYED, PLAYER. Look out for compound words, as they're often longer and more rewarding. When searching for pangrams, it's helpful to arrange all the letters first, making it easier to spot potential words.

Remember: Patience is key! Sometimes the simplest words are the easiest to overlook. If you're stuck, take a break and revisit the letter set with a fresh perspective.
