How to Spot FAIL on a Board
Start by locating the first letter, then check the eight neighboring cells for the next letter. Keep the path flexible: Boggle words can turn corners, move diagonally, and branch back toward the center as long as no tile is reused.
- Use this word as a recognition anchor, then look one tile beyond the path for extensions.
- If the final tile has an adjacent S, test a plural or verb form before moving on.
