How the word unscrambler works
A word unscrambler takes a set of jumbled letters and rearranges them into every valid word they can form. Type your letters into the box above — game tiles, puzzle letters, or a random scramble — and the tool checks them against its dictionary, then lists every playable word grouped from longest to shortest. It is built for Scrabble, Words With Friends, anagram puzzles, and any game where you make words from a fixed set of letters.
Longer words usually score more and clear more tiles from your rack, which is why results are sorted with the longest first. But the highest-scoring play is not always the longest one — a short word built from high-value letters, placed on the right premium square, can beat a long word made of common tiles. Knowing what each letter is worth is what separates a good play from a winning one, so the values for both games are laid out below.
Scrabble and Words With Friends letter values
Each tile is worth a fixed number of points. The two games use different maps, so the same word can score differently depending on which one you are playing. Use these to spot when a shorter, heavier word beats a longer one.

How to score more points with unscrambled words
Finding every valid word is only half the game. These habits turn a list of words into a higher final score:
- Play the bingo: using all seven of your tiles in one turn scores a 50-point bonus in Scrabble (35 in Words With Friends), often worth more than the word itself.
- Learn the two-letter words: they let you hook onto words already on the board and play in tight spaces — the quickest route to consistent points.
- Save your S and blank tiles: an S can pluralise an existing word for a whole second score, and a blank lets you complete a high-value bingo.
- Aim high-value tiles at premium squares: a J, Q, X or Z landing on a triple-letter square can swing an entire turn.
- Know the Q-without-U words: QI, QAT and QOPH let you offload a Q without waiting for a U to appear.
Frequently asked questions
Is using a word unscrambler cheating?
In a casual or solo game it works as a learning aid — many players use it to see which words are valid, build their vocabulary, then play unaided. In a ranked match against someone who is not using one, it is an unfair advantage. The fair rule of thumb: it is fine when every player has the same tools available, or when you are practising and reviewing your plays afterwards.
How are points calculated in Scrabble and Words With Friends?
Each tile has a fixed value (listed in the tables above). A word’s base score is the sum of its tiles, then multiplied by any premium squares it covers — double or triple letter, and double or triple word. Playing all seven of your tiles in a single turn earns a bonus: 50 points in Scrabble, 35 in Words With Friends.
How many words can you make from 7 letters?
It depends heavily on the mix of letters. A balanced set with two or three vowels and common consonants can yield well over a hundred valid words of varying lengths, while a rack full of rare consonants or duplicate letters yields far fewer. Enter any set above and the tool shows the full count and every word.
What are the best high-scoring short words?
Two-letter words are the backbone of expert play because they let you hook onto words already on the board. High-value short plays include QI and ZA, along with JO, XU and EX. Learning the valid two- and three-letter words — especially those using Q, Z, X and J — is the fastest way to raise your average score.
Why do Scrabble and Words With Friends give different scores?
The two games use different letter-value maps and different board layouts. For example, H is worth 4 points in Scrabble but 3 in Words With Friends, U is 1 in Scrabble but 2 in Words With Friends, and G is 2 in Scrabble but 3 in Words With Friends. The same word can score differently depending on which game you are playing.
