Lexulous is another fun game to add to your online stockpile of word games. This game can be played on Facebook, numerous game sites, and of course, on mobile phones. Two to four players can play the online game. Just like Scrabble, the object of the game is to score the most points with the words you create on the board. And, it is usually best to be the first person who finishes all their letters at the end of the game so you could gain additional points from the unplayed letters your challengers have on their rack. Nonetheless, it does not matter who finishes all their letters first since the player who has the most points wins the game. Eight letters are distributed at time per each player; Scrabble players have to select seven letters. As each player makes words in a crossword puzzle formation on the fifteen by fifteen grid, words intersect each other across the board. Where you place these words have an impact on your score because there are premium squares you should use to maximize your overall score. These premium squares are letter and word multiplier squares so it is key to use them as often as possible.

However, you should also use these premium squares cautiously since you do not want to place a word near them so that you provide an opportunity for your opponent to take advantage of the opening you may have mistakenly created. If for some reason you are not able to create a word from your letters on your rack, you do have the chance to swap your tiles. However, you will also skip your turn if you do decide to swap tiles. Instead of swapping tiles, use this cheat tool to find the best word possible for you to play so that you do not lose any precious points. And, if you like to calculate your points ahead of time, remember that Lexulous has several point value differences than Scrabble for certain tiles. For example, the P, M, C, and B are worth four points instead of three, and the F, H, V, W and Y are valued at five points instead of four points. The Q and Z are worth twelve points instead of ten points, and the K is valued at six points instead of five. As a result, you will get higher scores in this game since the point values for these tiles have increased. You do have an additional tile in this game in contrast to Scrabble, which could be beneficial to making words since you potentially have more options. On the other hand, it could also prove to be a bit more difficult to form words since you now have an additional letter to think about when trying to build words, especially longer words like word bingos. More letters could mean more options to some players whereas it could also mean more of a headache for others since you have to think of more letter combinations to create words. It all depends on how well you have practiced using this cheat to make higher point value words. Word bingos in Scrabble are worth an additional fifty points on top of the value of the word you played using all seven of your letters. In the Lexulous word game, if you make a word using seven of your eight tiles, you will score an additional forty points. If you use all eight of your tiles, you will receive fifty points. Next time you are unable to figure out a word bingo from your letters but you know the possibility of one exists, use this cheat to quickly find the best word bingo that will help you win the game.

INSTRUCTIONS

1.  In the “Your Tiles” box, enter your tiles to find the best possible word.  Use a ? for blank tiles.
2. In the “Board Tiles” box, enter the letter or letters on the board in order to help you create an entirely new word.  For example, turn NIGHT into KNIGHT and SHOVE into SHOVEL and you will boost your points.  Use an asterisk * to signify a space between two letters on the board.
3. In the “Match This” box, enter the letter or set of letters that your word must begin or end with in the form of a prefix or suffix.  Check the box on the left to set the letter(s) as a prefix and check the box on the right to set the letter(s) as a suffix.  For example,
4. Select the appropriate dictionary depending on where (which country) you are playing from–U.S. English or U.K. English.
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.
