the highest score from letter values.

- All words must cross at least one other word.
- Duplicate words are not allowed.
-

unless both letters are intersected.
One new word each day. Use the whole day to get your best score.

to play as often as you want, any time. Total words/points resets each day - beat your
best day, shown in Stats

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, the wrong length, or a
single unconnected letter.
- Duplicate word: already used elsewhere on the grid.
-
Fragmented game: valid and unique, but not connected back to the
starter word - blocks saving/sharing until it connects.
Info
- One square is permanently blocked and can't be filled.

Keyboard
- Letter keys show their point value (bottom-right).
-
⌫ Backspace - clears the selected cell, or on a second press (when
already empty) steps back one cell.
-
Across / Down - toggles which way typing jumps to the next empty
cell.
-
Keyboard - mobile only: switches between this on-screen keyboard
and your device's own.
-
Reset - opens the Clear dialog: clear just the selected word (or
across/down separately at an intersection), or the whole grid back to just the
starter word.
-
Save / Load - Daily only. One checkpoint per scoring
mode, per day: Save snapshots your current grid, Load restores it. Resets at midnight
- not saved history yet.
-
Dictionary - looks up the selected cell's word (in the current
typing direction), if it's valid and scoring - otherwise the starter word.
