Lexica: The Word Game That Keeps You Guessing
Lexica is a fast-paced word game challenging players to uncover as many words as possible from a grid of randomly arranged letters within a set time limit (3 to 30 minutes).
Key Features:
- Extensive Word Libraries: Access millions of words across multiple international dictionaries.
- Competitive Multiplayer: Challenge friends to word battles via SMS, email, and other platforms.
- Highly Customizable Gameplay: Tailor your experience with adjustable game parameters:
- Board Sizes: 4x4, 5x5, and 6x6 grids.
- Time Limits: Choose your preferred duration.
- Scoring Systems: Select from a variety of scoring methods.
Lexica remains completely free to play. However, if you'd like to contribute to its ongoing development, your support is greatly appreciated. This game is a community-maintained continuation of the original Lexic.
### Latest Update: Version 3.12.0 (February 18, 2024)
Key Improvements to the French Dictionary (thanks to @mccoys):
- Enhanced Board Generation: Letter probabilities are now dynamically adjusted based on their frequency in the French dictionary, leading to more balanced and challenging game boards.
- Letter Removal: The letters à, ö, ü, and ë have been removed. Their infrequent use (less than 50 words each, primarily in borrowed words) made them less relevant to gameplay.
- Improved Q Placement: The letter Q will now always be followed by the letter U, reflecting standard French orthography.
