In this classic word game, players use their seven drawn letter-tiles to form words on the gameboard. Each word laid out earns points based on the commonality of the letters used, with certain board spaces giving bonuses. But a word can only be played if it uses at least one already-played tile or adds to an already-played word. This leads to slightly tactical play, as potential words are rejected because they would give an opponent too much access to the better bonus spaces.
Skip-a-cross was licensed by Selchow & Righter and manufactured by Cadaco. Both games have identical rules but Skip-a-cross has tiles and racks made of cardboard instead of wood. The game was also published because not enough Scrabble games were manufactured to meet the demand.

for context, this entire word "oxyphenbutazone" gives a range of 48 points up to 1,458 points (per row no matter left to right or up to down)

Ok! Good to know, thank you!

1780 is the highest actually

Thiazine for 154pts

Is that your personal best?

Cant use 8 words though

[@MPHshoots]

@@ashutoshmagarbut you can set down 7 letters into a separate letter on the board. You don’t need to use 8 letters 🤣

That's a good one - have you gotten that one in a game before?

It's crazy that Vsauce made this same video a year later and got 5 million views. His was definitely more comprehensive to be fair though.

[@LegendaryTactics]

He's one of the best creators on this platform. I've been a fan for many years

[@IsaacPiera]

Basically Vsause got it right and this channel wrong. To score this amount of points you need to have a board with particular words on it and filling some characters you score the points. The images in this video are basically wrong, they shouw the word alone, which is not possible to make and would also not score that many points.

FROWZIER for 347

[@LegendaryTactics]

Oooh, that's a good one!

[@morgard211]

It's not the highest possible, but the highest discovered so far

[@LegendaryTactics]

True! Well said!

[@Oscar31YT]

It is officially the highest possible now, they’ve solved it using computer stuff I don’t understand (until more words are added which might be able to raise the score)

[@JaguarDevice]

You could never play that in scrabble because you can play a max 7 tiles at once…

[@LegendaryTactics]

Yes, but you can use letters already on the board to fill in the gaps. I admit it's a tall order, but theoretically speaking, that is the word that would net you the most points possible.

[@JaguarDevice]

@@LegendaryTactics Which words could already be in place to facilitate that? And if they were you wouldn't get that score as couldn't use all of the treble word multipliers

[@lucahawtin3478]

@@JaguarDevice you place those letters in on 1 turn The 3 triple letters and 2 double letters which is only 5 moves
