Word Hive, rebuilt
The hive is a size smaller, the clock is gone, and you now have 20 moves to make something of a shared stack of 1,000 letters. Everyone playing today draws those letters in the same order. Every 4th one is a bonus tile — 2× and 3×, with a 4× tucked in every so often.
Shuffle whenever you like. Each shuffle spends a move, so save it for a board that is actually stuck.
Three-letter words score their letters. Longer words pick up a length bonus on top, and the medals have moved up with the hive: 200 bronze, 225 silver, 250 gold.
