    • look hard for a blaster on the first turn that uses an exclamator(makes for a nice start)
    • blast some rocks along the way ... if a trap gets hit too - even better
    • when you play tiles adjacent to the rocks ... try to hit more than one rock at a time
    • magnets will hold one crown each during the game ... it is okay to blast the magnets
    • ... or wait until the rocks are gone then play tiles next to the magnets to release the crowns

    this example shows different ways to make longer words

    • words that include crowns
    • words where crowns are blasted
    • words without crowns

    it really helps to master blasting crowns for Collect all of the required words levels

    🍮 🍮  

    22) 21) create some crowns by making 4-letter words


    20) 19) SP*ENDERS no crowns are used


    18) 17) create crowns


    16) 15) GROOMS a 6-letter word that includes two crowns ... accepted as an 8-letter word


    14) 13) create one crown and create one blaster


    12) 11) create crowns


    10) TANNED a six-letter word that includes one crown ... three crowns are blasted ... this would be accepted as a 10-letter word
