Where has the game gone?
We are in the process of closing the ‘classic’ version of Two Words. It is sadly no longer available on Google Play, and Facebook login isn’t supported any longer. We are working on a fab new version of Two Words that will be released soon, keep an eye on this page for more information!
Rules of the game
If you would like to know anything else drop us a line and we will try to answer! hello@twowaymedia.co.uk
Where can I place a word?
Your word must touch your opponent's. All of these are valid:
You can change letters in your opponent's word - as long as it makes a valid word.
For example here your opponent had made the word BAKE.
You change it to CAKE and add a new word CAT.
You will score full points for CAT and half points for CAKE.
How does the scoring work?
The scores in Two Words depend on the value of the letter tiles used and the length of the word.
Score = the sum of the letter tiles x the length of the word.
For example BAKES:
The letter tiles = 3+1+4+1+1 = 10.
The length of the word is 5.
So the total score is 50.
You get an extra 20 points for making a 7 letter word.
You score full points for any new words you make and half points for words you change.

How do I get tokens?
Each game you play costs one token.
If you challenge a player and they do not accept the challenge you will get your token back.
If an opponent doesn't play for a while and there have been less than 10 moves in the game you'll get your token back.
You can play one free game a day with a random opponent.
