Wording

Swipe to make words. Any direction is allowed. Diagonals are allowed.

First look for any ER or ED on the board. You can end a lot of words with ER or ED and get a lot of points. Longer words also give you extra time.

Whenever you make a word, look for an S you can add to the end. Make that word with an S at the end also.

Whenever you make a long word, see if there's any sub words that are part of it. For example if you find SCRAMBLE, you know can also make RAMBLE, and AMBLE. Also SCRAM and CRAM and RAM.

If you see something that looks like it might be a word, just try it. There's no penalty for try to make a word that isn't in the dictionary.

74,000+ words. Only include words that are 16 letters or less. Doesn't include abbreviations, slang, obsolete, acronyms or proper nouns. Read more »

Compared to Scrabble, Wording has these point differences: V+1, J+2, G+1, B+1, C+1, M+1, P+1, H-1, Y-1

J was increased from 8 to 10 because it should be worth more than X because J doesn't have any 2 letter words. X has OX and AX and EX.

V was increased from 4 to 5 because V is just the most annoying letter ever.

C was increased from 3 to 4 because it's hard to find words that end in C. That's good logic. C being only 3 in Scrabble is tragic.

Y was reduced from 4 to 3 because you can add it to a lot of words to get more points.

H was reduced from 4 to 3 because it can be easy to make CH and TH and SH words.
