Here's the catch: every tile you move has to end up in one straight line — and it all has to spell a word. Slide three or more letters into place, and try to outscore the table. Easy to pick up in a turn or two. But the highest-scoring play is always hiding somewhere, and finding it takes real skill. Up, down, across, diagonal — what will you spell? ► TWO WAYS TO PLAY • Pass-and-Play (Free): Pass one iPhone or iPad around the table. 1 to 4 players, no internet needed. Game night, sorted. • Online Multiplayer (one-time unlock): Keep the game going with friends who aren't in the room. Start a match, share your join code, and take turns on your own time — minutes or days apart. Run up to five games at once — Your Games keeps every match one tap away, and we'll nudge you when it's your move in any of them. Finished? Tap Rematch and run it back with the same crew. ► MADE BY AND FOR PLAYERS WHO LOVE WORD GAMES • Every word checked against a 173,000+ word dictionary • Score by letter value and word length — plan ahead for the big plays • Word of the Week crowns the highest-scoring word around • Fireworks for 50+ point words — big plays deserve a show ► NO CATCH, NO KIDDING • No ads • No tracking • No accounts, no sign-ups, no email • Just the game you'll keep coming back to — on iPhone or iPad Gather the family, challenge a friend across the country, or chase your own best score.
