There are certain rules that determine whether a word is allowed to be played in Wurdian.
Most words are allowed, but - just as in Scrabble - so called 'proper names' are not allowed (names of persons and brands, geographical names, etc). The reason is that it is impossible to create and maintain a list of such names, because there are many millions of them.

The “final round” starts when one player has no letters left. All other players get one more turn before the game is over. The first player to finished their letters gets 25 bonus points; each other player who manages to finish their tiles in the final round gets 10 bonus points.
Players do not receive score subtraction based on letters left on their rack at the end of the game.

There are two ways a game can end. First, if one player has no letters left, all other players get one more turn and then the game is over. Second, if one player passes twice in a row and all other players also passed, the game is also over.
The first player to finish their letters receives 25 bonus points. Any remaining players will then get one more turn before the game ends and will get 10 bonus points if they manage to empty their rack too.

When you time out, you will automatically pass on that turn and the time for your next turn will be halved (24 instead of 48 hours). If you time-out twice in a row, this further halves to 12 hours, etc. The reason for the halving is that it will speed up the game considerably if your opponent decided to stop playing entirely.
Yes! If you tap on a word on the board, the app will look for definitions on Wikipedia and Wiktionary and show you the results in a pop-up. This feature is currently available in only some of the languages, but we are working hard on getting it to work in all languages.
No of course not. Bots are annoying.
Wurdian uses an AI-powered filter to reject inappropriate profile pictures. Unfortunately, the filter sometimes also rejects perfectly fine pictures. If that happened to you, simply send and email to info@wurdian.com and we will fix it for you.
Some players use external tools to help them find words to play, which some other players perceive as 'cheating'.
This is a common problem in word games which we can’t prevent. If you suspect that your opponent is playing in a way that you consider inappropriate, we recommend to block that opponent. You can still finish the game, but a blocked player cannot invite you for a new game or join tournaments that you are hosting.
Please be aware that it is difficult to distinguish cheaters from really good players. A player that makes great moves is not necessarily a cheater!
