About Word Master
Word Master is an engaging vocabulary puzzle game that challenges your linguistic skills and word knowledge. Create words from a grid of letters, earning points based on word length and letter values. With timed rounds and strategic letter placement, this game combines the best elements of word search, anagrams, and vocabulary building into one addictive experience.
How to Play
Click on letters in the grid to form words of three letters or more. Each letter has a point value shown in the corner, similar to classic word games. Submit valid English words to earn points - longer words score exponentially more! You can use each letter tile only once per word. The timer adds pressure, challenging you to find as many words as possible before time runs out.
Scoring System
Points are calculated based on letter values and word length. Three-letter words earn base points, while each additional letter multiplies your score. Bonus points are awarded for using high-value letters like Q, X, and Z. Finding all possible words in a grid unlocks achievement bonuses. The game tracks your personal best scores and longest words discovered.
Strategy Tips
Start with common prefixes and suffixes to build longer words. Look for letter combinations that appear in multiple words. Save high-value letters for longer words to maximize points. Use the shuffle feature when stuck to see new patterns. Practice recognizing common letter patterns and word roots. Remember that plurals and different tenses count as separate words!
What dictionary does Word Master use?
Word Master accepts common English words found in standard dictionaries. Proper nouns, abbreviations, and very obscure words are not accepted. The game focuses on everyday vocabulary that tests real language skills.
