Gameplay

About the Game

Wordbox is a 2 to 4 player game in which players try to form words (at least three letters long) from a given set of letters on a grid.

Objective

The objective of the game is to gain more points than the other players by forming as many words with as many letters as possible.

Gameflow

Wordbox is played in sets of rounds based on the number of players.

Two Player Games last until one player has won two out of three rounds.

Three and four player games are played with a knock out mechanic and last until there's only one player remaining. The player with the least amount of points at the end of the round is knocked out of the game and can no longer form words or gain points.

Words are formed by connecting adjacent tiles on the grid via tapping and dragging on the grid.

Scoring

Scoring is based upon:

• Word Length:

  • 3 letters = 1 point
  • 4 letters = 6 points
  • 5 letters = 8 points
  • 6 letters = 10 points
  • 7 letters = 12 points
  • 8+ letters = 14 points

• Bonus Tiles:

  • Words formed using the blue bonus tile are awarded 3 extra points.

Words must be at least three letters long to be valid.
