Tips

On a real board you are usually playing through a letter that is already there. Add that letter to the search along with your rack and look for words that use it, then check whether the placement reaches a premium square. Letters near the edge of the board are best used at the start or end of your word; a letter in open space can sit in the middle. The contains filter on the main unscrambler narrows the list to words with that letter.
