Game rules & how to play
Objective
- Everyone gets the same jumbled words and races to type the unscrambled answer.
- Correct answers lock in and score; wrong guesses just clear so you can try again.
- First player to unscramble every word wins — or the highest score when the timer ends.
How it works
- 1 to 20 players join with their name; the host picks a theme, difficulty, and optional time limit.
- Type your guess for the current scramble. Correct answers score and reveal the next scramble.
- Each solve scores 10 points, plus a 5-point speed bonus for solving that scramble first; harder puzzles add a per-letter bonus.
- Stuck? Reveal a letter for a small penalty.
Tips
- Look for common prefixes and suffixes (RE-, -ING, -TION) to crack longer words fast.
- Solving first is worth extra, so trust your first instinct and keep moving.
- Sound the letters out — saying them aloud often reveals the word.
