==Speed Scrabble== Each player is given a clean board and has to formulate as many words as possible in one minute.
==Daily Final== The winner of the first game competes against the winner of the second game in a Speed Scrabble round, with both players sharing the same board. Control of the board alternates every 30 seconds for two minutes. The players' scores are added to the scores from their earlier rounds, with the highest overall score winning the day's game.
The four winners from Monday to Thursday episodes compete in the Friday Final. The weeks' winners continue to Finals Week, with the overall winner being awarded a holiday.
