LexiConnect

Find the words. Claim the ones others missed.

LexiConnect is a turn-based, competitive word-finding game about observation, vocabulary, and the things hiding in plain sight.

Letters stack on a shared board. Every new letter changes the landscape, opening up new possibilities and bringing overlooked words into view. Search horizontally, vertically, and diagonally. Spot a word, queue it for claiming, and decide when you’ve seen enough to end your turn.

But look carefully: any valid word you leave unclaimed is an opportunity for your opponent.

There’s no need to rush your letter placement. Take your time, study the board, and trust your eye. The challenge isn’t just finding words — it’s knowing when you’ve found them all.

How to Play

  1. Draw a letter. A new letter is added to your hand of possibilities.
  2. Explore the board. Find words of three or more letters in straight, connected lines — horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Words can be read in either direction.
  3. Place your letter. Choose a column and drop your letter into it. The tiles settle under gravity, changing the board and creating new possibilities.
  4. Queue your words. Select valid words before ending your turn. Words must be in the dictionary, connected on the board, and not already claimed.
  5. End your go. A five-second confirmation window gives you a final chance to add or retract queued words.
  6. Score and pass. When the window closes, your queued words are permanently claimed. Each word scores one point per letter, and claimed words can never score again.
