Scores are calculated based on factors such as word length, letter rarity, and your current level. You should think strategically to create longer words and make the most of high-value letters. Common suffixes like "-ing" or "-tion" often help expand words and increase your score effectively.
Control Instructions

- Confirm word: Release the mouse after completion
- Shuffle the board: Click Lex when you cannot find a word
