WUZZY is the word puzzle game you didn't know you were missing — where the satisfying tile-sliding of 2048 meets the vocabulary thrill of Scrabble. HOW TO PLAY Swipe up, down, left, or right to slide all the letter tiles on a 5×5 grid. As tiles move, they lock into place — then WUZZY automatically spots every valid word hiding in the board. Tap the highlighted tiles to score them, clear space, and keep the game alive. Simple to learn. Impossible to put down. THINK FAST. THINK BIG. Three-letter words keep you in the game. Four-letter words score triple points. But land a five-letter word and you'll earn 10× the base value — making every single move a strategic decision. Do you go for the quick score, or set up something bigger? SCRABBLE-STYLE SCORING Every letter carries its own point value, just like Scrabble. Save those high-value Q's and Z's for a long word and watch your score explode. BLOW IT UP WITH BOMBS Sometimes the board has other plans. Earn bomb power-ups as your score hits new milestones — then use them to blast all tiles off the board and open up your next big word. The higher you score, the more firepower you unlock. FEATURES - 5×5 swipe-to-slide gameplay — no typing, no dragging individual letters - Automatic word detection for 3-, 4-, and 5-letter words - Scrabble-style letter values with length multipliers - Bomb power-ups earned through score milestones - High score saved locally — beat your personal best - Clean, ad-free experience - No account required WUZZY is made by LeMaNg Labs — a small independent studio building focused, fun games. Play free in your browser at wuzzy.info, or grab the app for offline play anytime.
