## What is The Palavo Word Game?

Find the move you missed. Play Palavo with equal letters, a shared vocabulary level and a coach that reviews every move.

SAME RACK
Both players receive the same letters on the same board. Each scores their own choice, and the better move advances the board. Compare what you saw without one player getting a better draw.

LEARN FROM EVERY MOVE
The coach compares your play with the engine’s best move, considering both points and the letters left on your rack. Review the word, its value and your accuracy after the game, or enable coaching during play. Hints are a shared game setting for both players.

CHOOSE YOUR GAME
Classic uses a 15 × 15 board, premium squares, blanks and exchanges. Claim scores the tiles you control: play through an opponent’s tile to take it over. The daily puzzle gives everyone the same eight-round challenge.

PLAY AT YOUR LEVEL
Choose from five computer opponents and four vocabulary levels. The chosen vocabulary applies to both sides. All 34 word lists are stored on your device.

PLAY TOGETHER
Pass one device between two players, or exchange invitation links with friends, whatever phone they use. Link games need no account. Remote opponents can chat and share photos, with reporting and blocking controls. On iPhone, Game Center also supports turn-based matches and turn notifications.

OFFLINE WHEN YOU PLAY LOCALLY
Computer games, pass-and-play, the daily puzzle and the coach work offline. Sending turns to remote opponents, chat, advertising and purchases need an internet connection.

FREE PLAY, OPTIONAL AD REMOVAL
Every mode, word list, opponent and coaching feature is free. Ads may appear between games, never during a turn. One purchase removes the ads; there is no subscription.

EXTRA RULES
Bonus words: Choose up to two words, separated by a comma. Each earns 20 extra points once per player.
Turn timer: 30 / 60 s. Start your turn to reveal your tiles. After the limit: -1 point per second, also while away. This game does not change your rating.
