How to play

Objective

Rearrange the tiles to form words and place them strategically on the grid to achieve the maximum possible score. Each word must be connected to another word in the grid.

Scoring

Each legitimate word is independently scored, and the cumulative score for all words will be tallied. Bonus tiles are to be taken into account for each word (as specified below). In instances where two words intersect at a bonus tile, the bonus is applied to both words.

Example

Start grid:

These tiles can be placed to give the solution below.

Score for "WORD"

• 'W' scores 4
• 'O' scores 1
• 'R' scores 1
• 'D' scores 6 (tile value of 2, tripled due to placement on a triple letter square)

This gives a total of 12, which is then doubled as the 'W' is placed on a double word score. Therefore, the score for the word 'WORD' is 24.

Score for "DO"

• 'D' scores 6 (tile value of 2, tripled due to placement on a triple letter square)
• 'O' scores 1

This gives a total of 7.

Overall Score:

The scores for each word are aggregated, resulting in a total of 31 points.

Notes:

• Each word of 7 or more letters attracts a bonus of 15 points
• It is not necessary to use all the tiles given. It is also not necessary to place a tile in each empty square on the grid
