Lexulous 2020: Puzzle Mode

It would be great if the game gave you bonus points for exceeding "best move". That way we don't just quit when we hit best move points but look for an even higher score.

@Sarah-Smith-Kornhaus Can you please share your Lex ID on private message? We will look into your puzzle history and try to fix this problem.
@lexulous I don't care if you fix my scores, I just wanted to let you know. Another little glitch I am seeing is discrepancy in the posted scores. One game said score to beat: 0 (3 tiles). On some games, the score to beat has been has been higher than the highest score. Also, I'm a decent player, but no expert, but at least twice I have beaten the highest score ... is this a matter of levels of difficulty, that is, when you are finished testing, will there be levels of challenge, and this beta level is medium challenge or something?

This is highly addictive and I love it! Thank you! It would be nice to have an extra acknowledgement, however, when I beat the so-called "best move"! That's really fun, and it would be nice to have the game say "You beat the best move by 4 points," or something!

@Lesa-Moore we are looking into why the Next puzzle button isn’t showing up on your screen.

@lexulous A few bugs to iron out yet. Also, what you say about scoring doesn't make sense. If I get the same score as the target, the difference is zero, yet in another game (#15 I think it was) I scored 15 for a 21-point answer.

Could you put the definitions at the bottom again like the regular lexulous? That is one function I really like. I like this game, it is addicting, trying to figure out the words that the other person had played.

Q4. Where can I find the dictionary being used for the puzzle?
A4. The dictionary being used is accessible to the right of the board.No, it isn't.
@Steven-Papier You have to click on Tools

@lexulous sorry it has not happened again!

Hi. Thanks for this. Things I like: they're from actual games; you're given previous player; you're given highest move (though occasionally strange that the AI doesn't find anything higher....). Things I'd like to see different: to see what the AI's play actually was, after you've played; for the scoring system to take more notice of how well you do versus potential points and less of how well the previous player happened to do; (and this is the biggy for me) to have a rating system that puts more weight on how well you do with the games you play than with how much you play. Right now it's an awful lot to do with volume of puzzles you complete, which could be one metric but it's not the one I'm interested in.... Thanks!

Lexulous Puzzles is a solitaire version of the game.
We are currently testing out this feature and it is in BETA mode.
If you have any suggestions or comments please reply on this topic.

@lexulous The puzzle no longer hangs. I get the score. But there is no option to play again.

Sorry Lex, but I think this practice version sucks!

@lexulous Really, really love this feature. Please keep it! Still - although I love playing against a computer, the words are really "out of this world". It would be much better if you could program it to use less freaking weird vocabulary, and more "game"! The level should not be based on the vocabulary, but on the strategy.

It won’t let me move the letters onto the game board.
