Squares tips and tricks

Treat the board like a word-family map: find a short answer, then extend it through nearby tiles into plurals, endings, and longer connected words.

01

Start with common endings

Look for paths ending in S, ED, ER, ING, or Y. Squares often rewards extending a short word into several longer answers.

02

Move diagonally

Adjacent letters include diagonals, so do not scan only rows and columns. Many longer paths zig-zag through the board.

03

Build word families

When you find a base word, try plurals, past tense, comparative forms, and related longer words before moving to a new area.

04

Save bonus words for later

Bonus words are rarer and do not count toward the main completion total, so clear the main list first if you want the fastest solve.
