Pangram first
Reveal one letter at a time, or open the full pangram when you are ready.
Complete list
The full word list is hidden until you open it.
Spend letters wisely
Smush rewards careful letter spending. Use the gold letter as your anchor, then save limited tiles for longer words and the pangram.
Every valid Smush word must include the required gold letter, so build around that letter before testing longer combinations.
Non-gold letters have limited uses. Save uncommon letters for longer, higher-value words instead of spending them on tiny words too early.
The pangram uses the board especially well and usually points toward the strongest word families in the puzzle.
Try common endings, plurals, and short prefixes with the required letter to uncover clusters of related words.
