"Scrabble meets Go"

Buzzwords is a hexagonal board game about spelling words to capture territory. Play online against a friend, or alone against the Computer.

Spell words to capture tiles

Use any letters on the board to form a word. You'll capture any letters you play that touch your territory, or form a chain back to your territory. Go for the flower - you get an extra turn if you destroy your opponent's flower tile. Wipe out your opponent to win.

It is fun, but getting half an hour into a game to have it crash and lose progress is just too annoying.

Sorry to hear you lost progress! It's supposed to save every turn. Would you mind sharing what browser you're using?

I appreciate it! I got over it . Lol. I'm using the Firefox on Android., Ublock disabled. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to when it happens, but the game crashes to the screen with the restore button, but no buttons on the page can be pressed.

Thank you for the game btw. I'm chronically ill and it helps pass the time during flares.
