Under the hood, UnscrambleX runs crimpiest against full game dictionaries, keeps only the arrangements that are legal to play, and ranks what survives by score — which is how crimpiest end up at the top of your results.

UnscrambleX lays out the full spread so you can weigh a big score against board control before committing — and along the way you'll bump into words you didn't know were words.
