About Spelling Bee

The Spelling Bee game is a no-cost browser-based word game of vocabulary and quick thinking. A grid of 7 letters in the form of a honeycomb is available with one letter at the center. The task is to come up with as many words as possible from at least 4 letters, all the while retaining the center letter. Every puzzle guarantees at least one pangram—a word with all 7 letters—which awards bonus points and a huge sense of accomplishment.
