Correct words will be highlighted in blue and become unselectable.<\/p>\n<p>Even finding non-theme words can help. For every three non-theme words of at least four letters, you\u2019ll get a hint, revealing some letters of a theme word that you can then unscramble.<\/p>\n<p>Each letter in the grid is used exactly once to spell out the theme words, with no overlap.
