How to Play Boggle - Rules of the Game 1. Find words by "chaining" letters.The goal of Boggle is to score points by finding words in the random letters in the grid. The letters you use must be touching vertically, horizontally, or diagonally in a chain. You can't skip or "jump" across letters. When you're making a word, you can only use each die once. For example, if you make the word "neon", you can't use the "n" at the start of the word again at the end of the word. The words you find don't have to go right-to-left. They can go up, down, backwards, forwards, and diagonally as long as all of the letters are connected in a chain and each letter is used only once. 5. Count each word only once. It's common for simple words to appear on the Boggle board several times. However, you may only write each word once on your piece of paper. In other words, you're trying to seehow manydifferentwords you can find. For example, if you see the word "apples," you are actually allowed to write down two words: "apple" and "apples." 8. Words-within-words are allowed.For example, if you see a word like "Webster," you can also write down "web" "webs." This is an excellent strategy for scoring as many points as possible. 9. Know which sorts of words are usually disallowed.
