Themed puzzles look identical to normal ones, but offer scoring bonuses for finding words based on a specific theme like fairy tales or sports words. Find them all (never easy) and you’ll get an Achievement. The number of possible digram words remaining is displayed at the top of the screen, creating an optional objective besides just hunting for points.

Words spelled with these tiles get an extra scoring bonus. Digram tiles have two letters instead of one, such as –er or –at. Every few games, a Diagram or Themed puzzle pops up, signified by a sound effect at the start of the round. Words with four or five letters get a 1.5x bonus, six or seven letters 2.0x, and 8+ letters 3.0x. It adds the value of each letter to assign the word’s final point value.

Wordament uses a Scrabble-style system in which each letter has a point value based on its rarity. Boggle simply awards points by the number of letters in each word, regardless of the actual letters. More significantly, both games have different scoring systems. For one thing, rounds last only two minutes instead of three. Wordament differs from Boggle in many ways beyond the number of simultaneous players.
