The goal of Wordshake is to discover words in a grid of 16 letters. Swipe across the letters in any direction – up, down, left, right or diagonal.
Letters can only be used once per word, and words must be 3 letters or longer.
To get 3 STARS on any level, find a word 6 letters in length or longer!
BRAINPOWER AND SCORING
Brainpower is determined by length of word and the value of each letter:
1 brainpower – A, E, I, O, U, L, N, S, T, R
2 brainpower – D, G
3 brainpower – B, C, M, P
4 brainpower – F, H, V, W, Y
5 brainpower – K
8 brainpower – J, X
10 brainpower – Q, Z
The longer the word the more brainpower you earn:
5 letters: 2x the brainpower
6 letters: 3x the brainpower
7 letters: 4x the brainpower
8 letters: 5x the brainpower
For example QUIZZES is worth (10 + 1 + 1 + 10 + 10 + 1 + 1) x 4 = 136 brainpower!
