Spelling Bee Game

Spelling Bee is a popular word game where you create words using 7 letters—six ordinary and one mandatory center letter. Each word must be at least 4 letters long and include the center letter; you can reuse letters as needed. Four-letter words score 1 point, while longer words score 1 point per letter, with an extra 7-point bonus for using all 7 letters in one word.

Start making your first word

Seven letters are displayed before you. Your goal is to form as many words as possible using these letters—you don't need to use every one of them. Every word must include the center letter and be at least four letters long, with letters allowed to be repeated. You have 24 hours to submit your words, and each day, the game refreshes with new letters and words.

The objective is to gather as many points as you can. And remember, if you ever get stuck, you can always shuffle the letters.
