How to Play

No typing on tiny phone keyboards. Pure anagram intuition and satisfying tile swaps.

1. Five Scrambled Tiles

Every round presents 5 letters from a valid word scrambled out of order. No missing letters, no keyboards.

2. Drag & Swap

Drag one letter over another to swap their positions. As soon as all 5 form a valid dictionary word, it immediately validates!

3. Zap & Build Combos

Fast solves trigger high score multipliers and grant extra seconds. Need assistance? Use creative clues or pass if allowed!
