How the Words With Friends helper works
Enter the tiles on your rack and the helper checks them against a dictionary of more than 269,000 words, returning every word you can build — ranked by its Words With Friends point value so your biggest plays sit at the top. Add a question mark (?) for each blank tile. To find a word that hooks onto a tile already on the board, add that letter to your rack and type it in the must contain box.
Words With Friends letter values
The score next to each word uses the Words With Friends tile values, which differ from Scrabble:
How it differs from Scrabble
The word list is the same, but the points aren't. Words With Friends rewards different letters — the H and Y are worth 3 (versus 4 in Scrabble), the L and N are only worth 2, and the V jumps to 5. The board layout and bonus squares differ too, so the best play here may not be the best Scrabble play. Use the Scrabble helper when you need Scrabble scoring instead.
