How to Play Words With Friends

 You get the same board, the same letters, the same objective, and the same Words With Friends rules. Play on a computer or via the app on your mobile device, the actual game is the same. The three main parts of the game you’ll need to know about are:

The game board: There are 225 spaces on the 15 x 15 grid. Play letter tiles horizontally or vertically to form words.
Your letter rack: You keep seven letter tiles on your rack for each turn. When you play three letter tiles in a turn, for example, you’ll automatically get three new letter tiles from the tile bag for your next turn.
The tile bag: The game has a total of 104 letter tiles. Each player starts with seven, refilling their rack from the bag until it is empty.
The game ends when the tile bag is empty and one player uses up all their letters. The game can also end when players “pass” three times in a row.
Making Moves in Words With Friends
The goal of Words With Friends is to form words using the letters in your letter rack, plus the letters that are already on the game board. Words have to be at least two letters long.
The first word played must include the center space, designated by a “plus” symbol. This first word gets a double-word score.
After that, every word must connect with at least one of the letters already on the board.
Words With Friends Scoring Rules
The rules for Words With Friends scoring are basically the same as they are for Scrabble.
Bonus Spaces
In addition to the face value of the letter tiles, you can earn more points by playing words on bonus spaces. There are four types of bonus spaces in Words With Friends.
Playing CARD here would be worth 48 points.
Bingo Bonus
If you play all seven tiles on your letter rack in a single turn, you earn an extra 35 points. This is on top of any additional points you earn from bonus spaces.
Multiple Words
One of the most valuable Words With Friends rules to remember is that you get credit for every word you create. If in forming one word horizontally, for example, the tiles also form another word vertically, you get points for both words. Using hooks is one of the most important strategies for winning.
The Final Move
The game ends when one player uses up all their letter tiles and there are no more letters left in the tile bag. At that time, you add up the value of all the letters left on the second player’s rack. That value is deducted from the second player’s score and added to the first player’s score.
The winner is the player with the higher final score.
Power-Ups and Other Moves
Beyond the core gameplay, you can further improve your chances of winning by using one of four power-ups. You can earn these power-ups through playing or you can buy them in the game. Words With Friends power-ups are similar to those in Scrabble GO, but they are also different.
Shuffle: Rearrange the letter tiles in your rack in a random order.
