Example: If you lay down 5 letter tiles to spell the word "aroma," and "m" is on a Triple Letter Bonus, while the entire word is on a Double Word Bonus, first calculate the bonus for the letter (3x2=6), factor it in when getting the score for the total word (1+1+1+6+1=10), then use the Triple Word Score to trip that sum (10x3=30) to arrive at your final score (30) for that turn.Ĭalculate each player’s score at the end of the game.When tallying the bonuses for plays with multiple Premium Squares, use an order of operations-add the letter bonuses before the word bonuses.Triple Word Score: A word that is made up of a letter placed on this Premium Score receives triple (x3) the number of points than it otherwise would.Triple Letter Score: A letter placed on this square is triple (x3) the number of points shown on the letter tile.Double Word Score: A word that is made up of a letter placed on this Premium Square receives double (x2) the number of points than it otherwise would.Double Letter Score: A letter placed on this square is double (x2) the number of points shown on the letter tile.You won’t be able to take advantage of a bonus from a Premium Square that you used in a previous turn or that was already counted by another player.
