Combinations

Combinations is an addictive word-building puzzle game that challenges your vocabulary and strategic thinking. Create words by combining letter sets and compete for high scores in this engaging word puzzle experience.

How to Play

Each letter set (like "ING" or "PRE") has limited uses, shown by a number. Your goal is to combine these sets to create valid English words. Every word must use 2 or more combinations, with longer words earning higher scores. For example: PRE + DICT + ING = PREDICTING.

Scoring System

Points are awarded based on word length and complexity:

  • Basic Words: 2 combinations (up to 6 letters)
  • Advanced Words: 3 combinations (7-9 letters)
  • Expert Words: 4+ combinations (10+ letters)

Strategic Tips

Master the game with these key strategies:

  • Monitor your remaining combination uses carefully
  • Focus on common prefixes (PRE-, UN-, RE-) and suffixes (-ING, -ED, -TION)
  • Build longer words when possible for higher scores
  • Track successful word combinations for future reference
