In Squares, you'll earn 1 point for each letter in a guessed word, with a minimum requirement of 4 letters per word. Remember, each tile can only be used once in a word, and words containing hyphens, proper nouns, vulgarities, or exceedingly rare words are excluded from the main word list.
Bonus words consist of obscure, archaic, and slang terms. While they don't contribute points, they're included in the bonus word list. Even after finding all the main words, you can continue hunting for bonus words.
Additionally, each puzzle hides one Word of the Day among the bonus words, offering two additional hints upon its discovery. A fresh Squares puzzle awaits you daily, releasing at midnight for your enjoyment and challenge.
