From the six or seven tiles of PATCHES you can form 187 words. This page is the complete answer, computed against our full dictionary rather than a hand-picked selection: every exact anagram, every shorter word, and the score for each. Words such as CHEAP and PATCH are the familiar ones; further down are rarer entries that are still valid in most games. Definitions for the most useful words follow the list.

How to use this page

Scan the longest group for the best plays, then the shorter groups for words that fit tight spots. Every chip shows a classic tile score; the quick facts pick out the top ten.

Tips

Every score here is a plain sum of tile values, so HEPCATS leads at 14 points because it uses expensive letters. The board changes the arithmetic. A modest word on a double-word square often beats the top scorer on plain squares, and a high-value letter on a triple-letter square can be worth more than an entire extra word. Use the badges to shortlist plays, then look at what the board offers before you commit to a placement, and count the total both ways.
