Words With Friends letter values
WWF tile values are close to Scrabble's but not identical — the biggest difference is that L is worth 2 points in Words With Friends instead of 1. Our cheat uses the official WWF values shown here:
| Points | Letters |
|---|---|
| 1 | E, A, I, O, N, R, T, S, U |
| 2 | D, L, G |
| 3 | B, C, M, P |
| 4 | F, H, V, W, Y |
| 5 | K |
| 8 | J, X |
| 10 | Q, Z |
How Words With Friends differs from Scrabble
- Bonus squares are placed differently — triple-word squares sit in different spots, so board strategy does not transfer one-to-one.
- The all-tile bonus is 35 points, not Scrabble's 50 — still huge, but slightly less game-warping.
- Tile distribution differs, so some Scrabble staples feel rarer or more common.
- It is turn-based and social, which makes a quick cheat check between turns especially tempting.
Words With Friends strategy tips
- Aim for the triple-word lanes early. WWF boards reward long horizontal and vertical plays down the center columns.
- Do not dump high tiles cheaply. A Z or Q played for 12 points on a quiet turn could have been 40+ on a bonus square.
- Learn the short high-value words. ZA, QI, XU, JO and AX turn dead tiles into instant points, just like in Scrabble.
- Keep your rack balanced. After each play, try to leave a mix of vowels and consonants so your next turn has options.
