Game Play:
--------------------
Tile Seven is easy to learn, even if youve never played Scrabble before. The aim of the game is to make words out of individual letters and place them on your rack. You then strategically drop the words onto the board below. When you drop a new word, it doesnt have to join up with any of the words already on the board – the word is like a brick that falls to the bottom of the screen. Points are awarded whenever a complete row of words is formed (the row disappears just like the classic ‘falling blocks’ games).
Bonus points are scored by:
• Clearing more than one row with a single word.
• Making 7-letter words.
• Dropping words onto bonus squares.
The game ends when you run out of tiles, time, or room on the board.
Like Scrabble, Tile Seven teaches you how to manage the letters on your rack, how to place words strategically to get the maximum score, and how to make the most of all the 2-letter words. Tile Seven penalises you for playing words that arent in the dictionary, but rewards you for clever placement and playing 7-letter words.
There are 99 tiles available in Tile Seven. Each row on the board is 9 letters wide – ideal for combining 7-letter words with the ever useful 2-letter words. The perfect game of Tile Seven requires you to clear 11 rows of words that contain 9 letters. But thats not possible if you try to play words that arent in the dictionary!
