The goal of
this game is to create words by linking adjacent
letter tiles. You have three minutes to construct
as many words as you can. The longer the word,
the more points you’ll earn.
To
create a word, click on a letter tile using
your mouse, then click on any adjacent letter
tile to select the next letter in the word. |
When
you have completed your word, click the “Submit” button.
You can also submit your word by double-clicking
on the last letter tile in the word. When you
submit a word, the worm will eat the letters.
The remaining letter tiles will drop down and
fill in the gaps. Valid words must be between
3 and 6 letters long. |
Each letter has a point value:
Letter Points
1 Point Letters - A, E, I, O, S
2 Point Letters - L, N, R, T, U
3 Point Letters - D, G
4 Point Letters - B, C, M, P
5 Point Letters - F, H, V
6 Point Letters - W, Y
7 Point Letters - K, Qu
8 Point Letters - J, X
10 Point Letters - Z
Your total score
is made up of a combination of factors. 1)
Points for each letter (see chart
above), 2) The level you’re currently playing
on, and 3) a multiplier (a factor of the total
number of letter tiles you used to create the
word). 4) Lastly, your score is multiplied by
10 to give you your final score.
At the end of each game you will see which
words that you submitted were correct. You will
receive minus points for any word that you submitted
that was not a valid word according to our dictionaries,
so be careful. You can only receive points the
first time you submit a word, so be sure not
to submit a word more than once. |
