Blitz guide
How to Play Blitz
Blitz is Wordrush at full speed: one 4×4 board and a single minute on the clock.
Play BlitzThe fixed round
- A new 4×4 board is yours for 60 seconds.
- Words must be at least 3 letters long and come from the active Wordrush dictionary.
- Each accepted word scores its length squared: 3 letters are 9 points, 4 are 16, and 5 are 25.
Find words fast
Start on a tile and move to an adjacent tile, including diagonals. You cannot jump across the board or reuse a tile in one word. Release to submit the trace.
A word is rejected if its path is invalid, it is too short, it is not in the dictionary, or you already found it in this round. There is no score target and no strike rule, so every valid word counts before the minute runs out.
When the round ends
The round ends when the 60-second timer reaches zero. In solo play you can also choose End Round early. In multiplayer, everyone shares the board and clock, while each player keeps their own found-word list and score; the host can end the room round early.
