Introduction
The Honeycomb Game is a word-building game: make words by clicking on cells in the honeycomb below. Choose a letter to begin with, then another next to it. Keep doing this until you have made a continuous chain of touching cells, forming a word of three letters or more.
Every letter carries a certain number of points (much as in Scrabble) and the darker-shaded cells bring a bonus. When you are satisfied with your word and your score, add it to your ‘Honey Jar’ by clicking the Add button.
See if you can make 10 words at an average of 40 points or more. Alternatively, try to score 100 points in under 2 minutes. Simply click the Timer to start the clock.
This is a new version of the game, which greatly reduces the amount of data you have to download each time you play it. Let me know if you have any problems with it: Email Support.
The word rebel is already showing in the grid. Add to it or change it, or click New Game to start over.
