How to play

Place one letter per turn on the grid. Every valid word your letter completes scores, in all eight directions: across, down, both diagonals, and backwards. Finish several words with a single tile and they chain into a combo for bonus points.

Common questions

How does scoring work?

In Classic mode every letter is worth one point, so a word scores its length and the real points come from longer words and combos. In Weighted mode each letter has a Scrabble-style value, so rarer letters are worth more.

What is the daily puzzle?

One handpicked board each day, the same for everyone. You get a set of moves to score as high as you can, and a streak for playing day after day. It runs fully offline.

How do I play with friends?

Choose online multiplayer, then share the four-letter room code. Two to four players take turns on the same board, live. You can also pass one device around in Pass & Play.

Does it cost anything?

No. Letterphile has no ads, no sign-up, and no in-app purchases.

Is my data private?
