Scrabble Online game info

Form words using the letter tiles on your rack. Increase your move score by using high-value letters, creating long words, and placing your word on the premium squares (double/ triple letter score, double/ triple word score). Enjoy the ultimate word game experience against a computer opponent with five difficulty levels. Our version of the Scrabble word game is much more interesting than a crossword game or a word search game.

Goal

The goal in our version of Scrabble is to score as many points as possible by placing high-value words on the board.

Letter tiles

The English language version is played with 100 letter tiles. Each tile has an amount of points, ranging from 1 point for the most common letters (vowels and L, N, R, T) to 10 points for the most uncommon letters (Q, Z). The amount of times that a letter tile appears also depends on how common it is. The letter E appears 12 times in the 100 tiles, while uncommon letters such as J, K, Q, X, and Z only appear once.

Below is an overview of the letter distribution and the points per letter in English language scrabble:

A: 9x - 1 point
B: 2x - 3 points
C: 2x - 3 points
D: 4x - 2 points
E: 12x - 1 point
F: 2x - 4 points
G: 3x - 2 points
H: 2x - 4 points
I: 9x - 1 point
J: 1x - 8 points
K: 1x - 5 points
L: 4x - 1 point
M: 2x - 3 points
N: 6x - 1 point
O: 8x - 1 point
P: 2x - 3 points
Q: 1x - 10 points
R: 6x - 1 point
S: 4x - 1 point
T: 6x - 1 point
U: 4x - 1 point
V: 2x - 4 points
W: 2x - 4 points
X: 1x - 8 points
Y: 2x - 4 points
Z: 1x - 10 points
Blanks: 2x - 0 points

You can use this letter distribution to come up with a good first guess for the Wordle game.

Gameplay

At the start of the game, each player receives 7 letter tiles on their rack. In our implementation you play against the computer.

Each move you can create one word on the board, using the letter tiles on your rack.

The first word has to be placed with one of its letters on the purple star in the middle of the board.

Subsequent words need to be placed adjacent to at least one letter already on the board. Each word that is created with the letters already on the board has to be a valid word as well.

If you are not happy with the letters on your rack, you can swap them with letters from the bag, or you can pass a turn.

Scoring

On the board, there are multiple premium (special) squares that increase your word score when a letter is placed on them:

Difficulty

According to your skill level, you can select the difficulty of your computer opponent from level 1 to level 5.

Game end

When there are no tiles left in the bag and a player empties their rack, the game ends.

The tiles left in the other player’s rack are deducted from their score.

Tips and tricks

FAQ

How are the words validated?

The game uses a dictionary that follows the same language rules as the NASPA Word List 2020 Edition (NWL2020). Those rules are made by NASPA, the North American Scrabble Players Association. You can find an overview of the accepted two-letter words here.

Can I challenge a word placed by the computer?

No, words placed by the computer cannot be challenged. The computer only places words that are in the dictionary we use, so you can be sure they are valid words.

How are the letters dealt?

The dealing of letters is completely at random, so it means that it can happen that you have (almost) only vowels, or don’t receive high value letters. If you are not happy with the letters you receive, blame probability calculation! You can always swap your letters if you cannot find a good word to play.

Can I see the letters on the rack of the computer?

No, this is not possible. In a real-life game of Scrabble, you also cannot see the letters of your opponent. The official rules also state that you cannot see your opponent’s rack.
