Word Submit Stage
Players are given 90 seconds to find and submit words to score.
Spell out words by touching letters on the board and then use the SUBMIT button to score the word.
To CLEAR a partially or misspelled word, don't submit it! Simply TOUCH a letter already used & lit up to clear the entire word.
Words can be spelled forward, backwards, up, down, or diagonally, but must stay in one direction. Letters must be on consecutive squares in that direction.
A word may only be scored once PER GAME, whether it appears more than once or is a palindrome(noon, radar, etc).
Players may submit as many words as they find in the time allowed.
Submitting an ILLEGAL WORD scores negative 25 points and immediately ENDS TURN.
A Unique Word Scoring Formula that is simple yet play balanced.
