3 Tips for Word City
Every answer comes from the same letters
The pool on screen is the whole puzzle. No answer can use a letter it does not show you, so counting the pool first rules out most of what comes to mind.
Start with the longest word
Long answers consume the awkward letters and leave a pool that spells the short ones out for you. Starting long is consistently faster than sweeping for three-letter words.
Letters repeat, words do not
A letter can be reused within one word, but each answer appears once. If you are one short, look for a longer form of a word you have already played.
How to Solve a Word City Level
The order that clears a Word City board fastest.
Read the letter pool
Count the letters before you swipe. The pool is a hard limit, and knowing it removes most wrong guesses before you make them.
Place the long answers
They use the most letters, so once they are down the remaining answers become much easier to see.
Fill the short slots last
Short words are the easiest to find and the least informative, so leave them until the board has already narrowed.
