How the UnscrambleKing Power Score Works

UnscrambleKing's Power Score is what makes it unique. Unlike other unscramblers that just sort by length, UnscrambleKing rates every word on a scale from Common to Legendary. Here's the formula.

Power Score = Scrabble Points ร— Length Multiplier ร— Rarity Bonus

Scrabble Points โ€” Standard tile values (A=1, B=3, C=3, ... Q=10, Z=10). The base score of the word.

**Length Multiplier:**
LettersMultiplier
2-31.0ร—
4-51.5ร—
62.0ร—
72.5ร—
8+3.0ร—

Rarity Bonus: - Word in top 10k common English words: 1.0ร— - Word NOT in top 10k (rare/obscure): 2.0ร—

**Power Tiers:**

๐ŸŸก Legendary56+Gold animated border + confetti

Hidden Gem ๐Ÿ’Ž Words that are rare (not in top 10k) AND 6+ letters get the Hidden Gem badge. These are the most valuable finds.

Example: The word QUIXOTIC: Scrabble = 26, Length (8) = 3.0ร—, Rarity = 2.0ร— Power Score = 26 ร— 3.0 ร— 2.0 = 156 โ€” LEGENDARY
