How to play on a phone

1. Play a friend. One of you taps Create a game and sends the code; the other taps Join with a code and types it in. Phones play phones, and laptops play laptops.
2. Make words. Tap a tile, then a square. A square takes consonants, then a vowel, then ं or ः: क् + आ → का. Words read across or down, and the first one covers the ★.
3. Points. Each tile shows its points. A word scores its tiles’ points × 1 up to two syllables, × 1.5 for three, × 2 for four or more. Every word your tiles make counts, and the first word of the game gets 10 more.
4. Coloured squares. On 2L or 3L, that square’s tiles count twice or three times; a word over 2W or 3W scores twice or three times. A square counts once, in the turn you cover it.

5. No dictionary on phones. If you doubt your friend’s word, tap Actions and Challenge before you place a tile. They check it, in a dictionary or online, then keep it (you lose 3 points) or take it back (it comes off the board and they lose its points).
6. Also in Actions: exchange tiles (1 point a tile, and your turn ends), pass, the tiles left in the bag, the score log, pause and forfeit. The game ends when the bag is empty and someone plays their last tile, or after four passes in a row.
