Don&8217;t worry about keeping score or arguing over words as you slide swap & shuffle because clever recognition software within the tiles does it for you. At the end of each round simply join the tiles together & all of your correct words (from some or all of the tiles) are totted up to give a score. A.C.E. eh! ...
