The object of this game is to make as 
many words as you can from a square 
grid of letter cells. However, the selected
letter cells on the grid must be adjacent 
or diagonal to each other. For 3x3 and
4x4 grids, the words must use three or 
more letters. If the grid size is 5x5, the 
words must use four letters or more. On 
this screen the letters on the grid are hidden with a  on each grid letter position.
The  … area on the bottom line is 
called the Spelled Word line. The number 
of boxes on the Spelled Word line is the 
length of the longest word that can be 
made from the letters in the square grid.
The number of words that can be made 
with the grid letters is shown on the right 
side of the screen. The above sample 
screen shows there are 1 [six-letter], 4 
[five-letter], 14 [four-letter], and 9 [threeletter] words that can be made with the 
grid letters. This, possible words to be 
made display, is updated as you make 
words, so you will always know how 
many words are left to be made.
Pressing on a grid letter will cause it to 
move to the Spelled Word line. You can 
take back the last placed spelled letter by 
pressing on it, and it will return to the 
grid. If you would like to return all your 
spelled letters to the grid, simply press
the key. 
Once you have spelled your word, press 
the ENTER key. If it is a valid word from 
the over 47,000-word vocabulary, it will 
be scored, the count of words using its 
letter length will be reduced, and finally 
the letters will be returned to the grid. If 
it is not a valid word, a ? will be displayed.
If you have not turned the timer off, the 
amount of time you have to make words 
will be shown on the clock display.
You will also see your initial zero score, 
which will be updated as you make 
words. Longer letter length words 
receive more points. If you do well and 
achieve a good score, you will be given 
a Bonus Round with a new grid of letters 
and more time to make words and add to
