THREAD 11 × 8 = 88

Your turn: drag a word.

    Total 88 ·

    Bends are the whole trick.

    A word's base is the sum of its letters. Its mult is its length, plus one for every 90° turn the trace takes.

    THREAD has six letters and two bends, so it scores 11 × 8 = 88. Lay the same letters out in a straight line and they earn 66. Finding the twisty path for a word you already know is the skill Weave is built on.

    Eight weaves make a tapestry.

    Each weave gives you six picks to reach its target. Miss one and the run unravels. Clear all eight and it's finished.

    Between weaves you see what's coming, then the shop opens: modifiers that add base, add mult, or multiply it. Pick well and the numbers start to run away from the targets.
