Select a word by clicking it in the list, clicking it on the board, or pressing Tab / Shift+Tab to cycle through words.
Mouse: click a grid cell to drop the word's first letter there. Move the mouse in a straight line and the rest of the word previews filling in that direction β click again to lock that stretch in and bend a new direction. Keep clicking until the whole word is placed.
Keyboard: after selecting a word, arrow keys move a cursor for the first letter; press Enter to drop it. From there, each arrow press adds the next letter in that direction (e.g. Down, Down, Right, Right makes an "L"). Press Delete to remove the last letter placed, or Escape to cancel and send the word back to the list.
Touch: tap a word, then drag your finger through the grid to trace its path. Lift to finish β if the word isn't fully drawn, it resets.
A word can never twist over its own letters. Everything else is allowed to be wrong: letters from other words can clash, or a word can hang off the edge of the grid β those just show a red outline. Fit every word in with no red outlines to win β the grid's border glows green.
