Drag cards from column to column to create words vertically. Try to arrange all the cards into words.
When moving a letter from one column to another, the linked letters either have to make a word or be working toward one. For example, you can put an 'H' on a 'T' to make 'TH' because many words start with 'TH'. But you cannot put an 'H' on another 'H' because no word starts with 'HH'.
You can move grouped letters. For example, you can move the letters 'OP' from 'STOP' and put them on an 'H' to make 'HOP'.
Words must be built in sequence. For example, if you want to make the word 'STING', each part must be on its way to a word. You can make 'TING' and then move those letters on an 'S', but you cannot make 'NG' because no word starts with 'NG'.
When a word is made that is in our word list, a diamond appears at the top of the column. If the diamond is green, then that word meets all the rules for the level. If the diamond is red, then not all the rules have been met. For example, if the word does not meet a minimal length requirement or the special card rule has not been met. You can click on the red diamond to see the rule for the level you are on.
Higher levels use
special cards. These cards must each be in a separate word before the DONE button will become active. Thus it is fine to leave more than one special card in a word while you are playing, but in the end each must be in a separate word.
Our word list does not include proper names, acronyms, hyphenated words, or words with apostrophes or any other punctuation. It does include popular foreign words used in US culture and also the UK spelling of many words.
Watch for special level messages. They will explain changes that you will need to know to be successful.
There are a total of 75 levels. The game difficulty increases as you progress through the levels.
