Custom results use the displayed ESDB-based SBee Tools list version. They do not claim another game officially accepts the same words.

Frequently asked questions

How do I use Word Finder & Checker?

Enter one center letter and six different outer letters, then find matching words or check one word against the current SBee Tools list.

Can a puzzle word repeat a letter?

Yes. A word may reuse any hive letter, but the hive itself must contain seven different letters.

Does a list match mean another game accepts the word?

No. It means the word matches the displayed SBee Tools list version and your letters. Another publisher or competition may use a different list.
