About the Game

Test your scrambled word skills in head-to-head competition

Use your word skills to outscore your opponent(s) using word stacking and socking techniques.
Optionally, games can be timed with per-move or per-game timers.
Play locally in solo mode or with up to four players. Includes AI players of all levels from first-grader to expert wordsmith.
Play online in multiplayer lobbies with up to four players.

Game requires keyboard and mouse, although a gamepad is possible by using Steam's controller mapping.
  • Map controller buttons of your choice to the Escape and Shift keys
  • Map a controller button to the left mouse button
  • (Optional) Map a controller button to the right mouse button (this allows removing an entire play from the board with one button)
  • Map a joystick or pad to the left mouse cursor position.
With this setup, functionality will be sufficient to play, but for timed games, fast word typing will not be possible.

Multiplayer requires:
  • a valid Steam client and profile
  • a working internet connection.
