Word Hunt

Goal

Find as many words as you can in the grid before time runs out. A word is formed by linking neighbouring dice (horizontally, vertically or diagonally), without using the same die twice.

How it works

• Slide your finger or the mouse from one die to the next, then release to submit the word. Go back to the previous die to correct.
• You can also tap the dice one by one, then tap the last die again (or "Submit").
• On the keyboard: type the word, the path appears, then press Enter.
• Three letters minimum. Every word in the dictionary is allowed, including plurals and verb forms.
• The "Qu" face counts as two letters.

Points

• 3 or 4 letters: 1 point
• 5 letters: 2 points
• 6 letters: 3 points
• 7 letters: 5 points
• 8 letters or more: 11 points

About the AI

In every game, a solver walks through the grid depth-first, narrowing the range of prefixes in the sorted dictionary of 269,846 words: it therefore knows every possible word. The AI "finds" a share of them that depends on the level, on how common each word is and on its length; its finds trickle in as the clock runs. At Master level, it finds almost everything. The final summary shows every word in the grid: tap one to see its path.
