About Bad Word

Yes, you can play bad words. They just score half.

Bad Word is the word game that fights back: every word you spell lands on your rival's rack — one tile pushed for every four letters you play. Spell fast, think sharp: big words hit harder, and the first rack to overflow loses.

One price, everything. $2.99 — every mode, every theme, every joker. No ads, no in-app purchases, no pay-to-win. Just word skill.

Five Ways to Play

Solo — Race the tiles across 16, 32, and unique-word modes.
Zen — No timer, no rival. Just you and the tiles.
Duel — Real-time 1v1 against Normal or Hard AI, or a friend via invite link.
Survival — A free-for-all loop for 3 to 8 players. Last rack standing wins.
Quick Match — One click, one opponent.

Tile Movie Maker

Type a scene — "Q loses U, then finds it" — and 26 letter-tile actors with real faces act it out: hops, tears, steam, speech bubbles, slide whistles, sad trombones. Export a GIF and send it to someone. Occasion cards included: Birthday, Congrats, Good Luck, Miss You.

Bad Words Count — At Half Score

Every dictionary word is fair game. The spicy ones just score 50% instead of being rejected, lol.
