The Wordscapes Brilliance number doesn’t otherwise affect your play in any other way, but it’s a nice affirmation.

It might not lead you to a real word, but a new perspective might give your brain the boost it needs.Īnd if shuffling doesn't reveal any of those hidden words, you can always punch your letters into the word finder solver tool to find some useful suggestions for words. Sometimes, the shuffle button just turns the wheel clockwise, which isn't much help, but eventually you’ll see something different. If you’re struggling to make letter connections, keep hitting the shuffle button until you see a pattern that makes sense. But if you're stuck for a short word, try an abbreviation. Generally, you’re only getting away with formal dictionary words (the stuff that gets past your toughest aunt on family Scrabble night). However, the game does accept some abbreviations: “Sub,” "alt," "demo," and "pro" are all good to go. The slang word “hon” doesn’t fly here, and there's certainly no "BFF" to be seen. In some ways, the Wordscapes dictionary is less generous than the Words With Friends or Scrabble dictionary. Even if it’s not in the puzzle, you’ll score a bonus word.

If the letter S appears on your wheel, expect to pluralize approximately all of the things. You would not believe how many puzzles rely on adding an S to an already played word, or even, in a double-devious move, a bonus word that doesn’t occur in the singular. Sometimes, systematic brute force iterations are just the way to go. Swipe in every last word you can think of (and even words that may not look like words to you). Puzzles are untimed and every bonus word you spell is worth another Coin. Not that you could tell from our florid prose, but the written word prioritizes concision. Plus, it just feels good to swipe in that six-letter monster word on the first go. There’s usually one that uses all six letters on the wheel, and that’s what buys the most help with the other clues. In the absence of an extra word, however, your priority should be to spell the longest word that fits the puzzle. As a handy side effect, your quest to solve the extra word will likely yield some words in the main puzzle, as well as some bonus words for more Coins. In free-to-play apps, as in life, you gotta get that paper. Devote your every exertion to spelling that word first. Lots of Wordscapes levels come with an extra word that has a Coin in every space.
