What Is a Word Hunt Solver?
It's a free tool that lists every word from its word list that you can build on a Word Hunt board. You type or upload the letters in the same spots they appear in the game, and the tool follows every path of touching tiles that could still form a word. Think of it as a word solver made for one job: finding words on a letter grid.
How Does a Word Hunt Solver Work?
It follows the game's rules, then checks each word against a word list.
Following Connected Letters Across the Grid
The solver starts on each tile, steps to a neighboring tile, and builds letter sequences one tile at a time. It stores its word list as a trie, which is a tree of word beginnings. If no word in its list starts with the letters on the current path, it drops that path and tries another. This is called a depth first search.
Which Word List Our Solver Uses
Every match is checked against the ENABLE word list, a public domain dictionary built for word game players. The solver checks every word in that list that is 3 letters or longer.

Video transcript
Stuck on a Word Hunt board? Let's find every word, fast! Just head to wordhuntsolvers.com. Start with a 4x4 grid. Type each letter right where it sits on your game board. The cursor jumps ahead for you, so it's quick! Now hit Solve. Boom! Every word, longest first, with its points. 50 words on this board! Got a bigger board? Tap Clear, then set rows and columns to 5. Type in your new letters, same as before. Hit Solve again. 123 words! The top one is worth 2,200 points. Now it's your turn!
Set Your Grid Size (3x3 up to 6x6)
Pick the number of rows and columns, from 3 to 6 each. Most Word Hunt boards are 4x4 or 5x5. If a spot on your board has no letter, leave that tile blank and the solver will skip it.
Type or Upload Your Board Letters
Enter each letter in the same spot it holds in the game. The cursor moves to the next tile on its own. You can also upload a screenshot of your board instead. The solver reads the letters and fills in the grid for you. Check each tile and fix any mistakes before you solve. Your last board stays saved on your device, so it is still there if you reload the page.
Tap Solve to See Every Word
The results list shows every valid word, grouped by length with the longest first, plus the points for each word and the total for the board. You can filter the list by word length or by the letters a word starts or ends with, and copy it in one tap.
Tap Any Word to See Its Path on the Board
The tiles for that word light up on the grid, and numbers on the tiles show the swipe order, starting at 1.
Keyboard Shortcuts for Faster Solving
The arrow keys move between tiles, Enter solves the board, and Backspace jumps back one tile.
What Is Word Hunt on GamePigeon?
Word Hunt is one of the word puzzle games in GamePigeon. You find as many words as you can on a letter grid before time runs out. It plays a lot like Boggle.
What Is GamePigeon?
GamePigeon is a pack of games that runs inside iMessage on iPhone and iPad. It also includes other word games, such as Anagrams and Word Bites.
How Do You Play Word Hunt on iMessage?
Open a chat, tap the GamePigeon app, pick Word Hunt, and send it to a friend. The higher score wins.
Word Hunt Rules: How Letters Connect
Drag your finger across adjacent letters to make a word. You can move up, down, sideways, or diagonally. Every word needs at least 3 letters, and you can't use the same tile twice in one word.
How Does Word Hunt Scoring Work?
Word Hunt scores each word by its length. Every letter counts the same, and there are no bonus squares, so a Q earns no more than an E.
| Word length | Points |
|---|---|
| 3 letters | 100 |
| 4 letters | 400 |
| 5 letters | 800 |
| 6 letters | 1,400 |
| 7 letters | 1,800 |
| 8 letters | 2,200 |
One 7 letter word earns as much as eighteen 3 letter words.
Quick Tips to Score More in Word Hunt
Long words win rounds, because points jump with every extra letter. Start from the center tiles, where each tile touches the most neighbors, and check diagonals as often as rows. Spotting words in a word adds quick points, and adding S, ED, or ING to a word you've found often makes a new one. For the full routine, scoring math, and two real boards we solved, see our Word Hunt strategy guide.
How Can a Solver Help You Get Better at Word Hunt?
After a round, enter the same board here and compare the results with the words you found. The words you missed show which patterns to watch for next time. For practice, our Board Evolver builds boards with high total scores.
Why Didn't Word Hunt Accept My Word?
The Game Uses a Different Word List
We haven't found a public copy of GamePigeon's word list. Our solver uses ENABLE, and the two lists aren't identical, so the game sometimes refuses a word the solver shows.
The Letters Don't Connect
Each letter must touch the one before it, and no tile can repeat.
The Board Was Entered Incorrectly
One wrong tile changes every result, so check your letters before you tap Solve.
Why Is a Word Missing From the Results?
If you can't find a word you expected, check two things. The solver lists a word only if its letters connect on your board and it appears in the ENABLE list. Names aren't in that list, and words shorter than 3 letters don't count in Word Hunt.
What Should You Look for in a Word Hunt Solver?
Look for six things: support for the board sizes you play, quick board entry by typing or screenshot, word paths shown on the grid, a named word list, no download or signup, and privacy for your board. This tool covers all six.
How Is This Tool Different From Other Word Tools?
Each word game solver works differently. A word search solver finds hidden words that run in straight lines. A word finder, also called an unscrambler, takes loose letters you can rearrange in any order. Word Hunt works differently: the letters stay in place, and every word has to follow touching tiles. See our comparison guide for details.

No. It uses a fixed word list and a search through touching tiles, so the same board always gives the same results. Screenshot uploads read each letter by comparing its shape with letter patterns, and that also runs in your browser.
QCan I use it on Android?
Yes. It runs in any modern browser on Android, iPhone, iPad, or a computer. GamePigeon itself only runs in iMessage on Apple devices.
QIs it free?
