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

That gap matters: the weakest play here earns 2 points while the strongest reaches 17, so the same letters can swing an entire turn depending on where and how they land.
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.
