Take turns with your opponent to fill in the 25 boxes with letters. With these letters you need to write words both horizontally as vertically from 2 to 5 letters. If you have placed a letter on your board, your opponent will need to place the same letter on theirs. If your friend then places a letter of their choice, you will need to do the same and place the letter on a spot that works well to create a word. You can erase a letter that is not convenient for you to place using the bomb or swap. This letter is then also erased in the same way on the board of your opponent. During the game you will see the scores of both players. When both boards have been filled in you will see in colors which words you have formed. If you in the end have scored more points with your words, you have won gloriously, which will bring your opponent to rage and seek revenge. Hint: every letter in the alphabet has a certain value. The A will gain you 1 point, while the X will give you 9. By playing smart and using letters that are worth more points, you will win in no time. The most exciting way to play XaXaX is with a time limit! In this mode, if the time runs out, the game will play a random letter in an open spot, possibly making it more difficult for you.
