Spelling Bee

Seven letters are arranged in a honeycomb, and players build words of four or more letters that always include the centre letter, reusing letters as often as needed. Longer words score more, and pangrams using all seven letters earn a bonus. Rank titles climb from Beginner to Genius, with Queen Bee for finding every word.
