The ranks either side of Newbie in the difficulty ladder, so you can see whether the jump you just felt was real.
Clearing the Newbie Rank
Expect 1 answers a board
That is what Newbie levels average, against 4.1 across the game. Knowing the count stops you hunting for a word that was never there — the game tells you how many to find.
The theme narrows everything
On Food every answer belongs to that subject, so read it before you look at the letters.
The next step up is Hint Millionaire
Hint Millionaire asks for 1.6 words a level. If these boards feel comfortable, that is where the difficulty goes next.
How to Clear a Newbie Board
The order that clears a Newbie board fastest.
Read the theme before the letters
Every answer on the board belongs to the subject named at the top. On a Newbie board that is the only clue you get, and it removes most of the grid before you swipe anything.
Expect 1 answers
That is what this rank averages, against 4.1 across the game. The board tells you how many remain, so the count is what finishes a level rather than an empty grid.
Take the longest word first
Letters fall and repack after each answer, so the biggest word rearranges the board most and usually exposes the shorter ones without further searching.
