How bonus finds work
Only words accepted by the game’s bonus vocabulary count; some dictionary words do not. The server checks each path when online. Offline attempts are saved for checking after you reconnect. Build a word of 4 or more letters through touching tiles before you solve all 3 clue answers; the board locks after the last one. Diagonals count, and you can’t reuse a tile in the same word.
Points by length: 4 letters = 1; 5 = 2; 6 = 3; 7 = 5; 8+ = 11.
Each bonus word counts once. Bonus points appear in your share result, and bonus finds count toward bonus-word badges. Only the three clue answers complete the field.
Stuck? Get a hint2 free / word
Each hidden word has its own clue, then up to two free starting letters—one at a time. More letters are optional and use your Plus monthly allowance or letter credits. Hinted tiles use the color of their word's clue and are numbered in route order; shared tiles show each word's marker. Choose a hint button to reveal help. Keyboard: Tab to a hint button, then press Enter or Space. Hints affect Clean Sweep only; other rewards still count.
Tap or click adjacent letters in order to spell any of the three clue answers. Paths can zigzag (diagonals count); a tile can be shared across answers but used once per path. Find other accepted words for bonus points before your third answer locks the board. In NVDA, press NVDA+Space to switch to Focus mode so the arrow keys control the board.
One word can bend.
Follow touching letters in order. The route can turn and move diagonally.
BEND
Example: B, E, N, D. Start at the upper left, move right, then diagonally down-right and diagonally down-left. Each letter touches the previous one.
How to play
- Read the clueSolve any one of the three related answers, each at least four letters long.
- Build a letter pathTap or swipe touching squares forward or backward. Diagonals count, and matching tiles can be shared between words.
- Keep diggingOne answer completes the quick dig; all three complete the full dig and lock the board. Before you solve all 3 clue answers, spell other accepted words of 4+ letters for bonus points. Each counts once: 1 point (4 letters), 2 (5), 3 (6), 5 (7), or 11 (8+).
Keyboard: Tab visits every letter. Arrows move up, down, left, or right; Shift+↑ moves ↖, Shift+→ moves ↗, Shift+↓ moves ↘, and Shift+← moves ↙. Space or Enter activates the focused tile; Backspace removes the last letter; Escape clears the path.
NVDA: Press NVDA+Space to switch to Focus mode so the arrow keys control the board.
Bonus finds are checked by the server against its own vocabulary; some dictionary words do not count. The game checks each path when online. Offline attempts are saved for checking after you reconnect.
