What are the rules for the End Game? — Words With Friends Instant Games Help Center (2024)

The rules for the End Game are:

• The game ends when one player plays every tile in his rack, and there are no tiles remaining to draw from.

  The game could also end if three successive turns have occurred with no scoring and as long as the score is not zero-­zero. An example of this is when you pass your turn then your opponent also passes. If you again pass then the game is over. This does not count as a resignation.

• After the last tile is played, the opposing player will lose points equal to the sum of the value of his remaining tiles. This amount is then awarded to the player who placed the last tile.
