What to Expect on Each Daily Answer Page

Every daily answer page includes the complete word list for that puzzle, sorted first by length and then alphabetically. Each pangram is highlighted in amber so you can spot it at a glance. The page also shows the total word count, maximum possible points, the Genius threshold for that day, and the required center letter. Answer pages go live automatically each morning as soon as the new puzzle data is available.

How Spelling Bee Scoring Works

Four-letter words are worth exactly 1 point each. Words with five or more letters score 1 point per letter. Pangrams — words that use all 7 letters at least once — earn a 7-point bonus on top of their letter count. Genius rank requires 70% of the total maximum points. Queen Bee means you found every single word.

How many words are in a typical puzzle?

Most NYT Spelling Bee puzzles contain between 15 and 80 valid words. The word count and total point value are shown on every archive card and answer page so you can compare puzzle difficulty across days.
