Lexulous is a word game that incorporates building words with strategic play like many other word games. The words are linked together throughout the game in a crossword puzzle formation. Lexulous does require you to have a good apprehension of words, but there are also a myriad of other skills that are necessary to become a better player. Like most word games, memorization is essential. Memorizing word lists can drastically improve your game. This Lexulous cheat has all the updated word lists you need to add to your arsenal of words so that you can have an edge over competition. For example, memorizing the infamous two-letter word list will help you get out of a tight spot on the board. Another word list that is good to know are words without vowels. The words with a Q without the U is also helpful. If you integrate these skills and sharpen your strategic play of letter placement, Lexulous will not only challenge your mind, but it is a fun game to play online with friends, family, or even with random opponents. Even though Lexulous is just like Scrabble, you should still check it out and see what the game is about for yourself.

Since Lexulous is very similar to playing Scrabble, it also uses the same dictionary as Scrabble. Instead of changing the dictionary like the Words With Friends game developers did, which uses the Enhanced North American Benchmark Lexicon (ENABLE), the Lexulous game developers decided to use the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary, or OSPD for short. Knowing which dictionary to use in any word game is important not just for playing permissible words, but also correctly challenging your opponent’s words whenever necessary to do so. This Lexulous dictionary is a compilation of five collegiate dictionaries with many updates since the late 1970s as it was based off of Scrabble’s point of reference for gameplay. Lexulous provides a choice between two dictionaries, the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary, or OSPD, and the OWL dictionary, which is the Official Club and Tournament Word List. The very first version of the OWL dictionary was edited by the National Scrabble Association Dictionary Committee, which was formed in September 1996. The first edition of OWL replaced OSPD in 1998 and became the authoritative source for word lists for all club and tournament play in the United States and Canada. There is also an Official Long Words List that was established by the same Dictionary Committee in 2003. Although there are no definitions listed next to these longer words, it is still used in tournaments as a source for words that are longer than nine letters. The Dictionary Committee released the fourth edition of OSPD in 2005. This fourth edition of OSPD was published as a result of combining the five different collegiate dictionaries, which included Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, the American Heritage Dictionary, Random House Webster’s College Dictionary, and Webster’s New World College Dictionary, and Funk & Wagnalls. In 2005, the Dictionary Committee used the OSPD4 changes to update the word list that was officially used for clubs and tournaments, which became OWL2 in 2006 and hence used as the official source of words for the National Scrabble Association clubs and tournaments. The fourth edition of the dictionary that was published in 2005 contained approximately 4,000 new words, including the two-letter words QI and ZA, much to the dismay of many players. Despite the fact that Lexulous is very similar to Scrabble and uses the same dictionary as the word authority for the game, there are still some differences between the two games. Using this cheat will help you understand how to play and win Lexulous by providing many features that are quick and easy to use.

5. Select “score” to filter results by maximum point value, or select “length” to filter results by the number of letters in a word.  You may choose score to continue racking up points or you may choose length to try to extend your word in order to reach a key hot spot on the board, such as double or triple letter multiplier squares or double or triple word multipler squares.
6.  When you click on “More Options”, additional helpful features appear, which include the following:
   Word Counts:  Select this option if you would only prefer to view the number of possible words available from your selected dictionary.  You will only see the total number and not the words.
   Score Empty Tiles:  Select this option if you want the letter designated by a question mark to be included in the overall score of the word. For example, if you enter
   Low Resolution: Choose this option and results will be unformatted and displayed in plain text which will load much faster.
   You may also click on a specified box to specify the exact number of letters a word must consist of based on your chosen criteria.  Or, keep all the boxes checked at all times in order to show all possible words.  You can also view a specified number of words by a grouped total of 10, 100, 500, 1000, or leave the choice selected to ‘all-top results per group’ to view all possible words.
