Bonus Tiles

Bonus tiles are specialty tiles that may appear in all levels of Spell Rift. Unlike all other specialty tiles, they do not appear randomly, but rather, as a reward for making words. Bonus tiles come in three varieties—copper, silver, and gold.



Appearance:
Bonus tiles are copper, silver, and gold-colored tiles resembling square ingots. They have a shiny reflection on them, and emit a soft glow around them.

What they're worth

 * Copper tiles are worth 5 bonus points.


 * Silver tiles are worth 10 bonus points.


 * Gold tiles are worth 20 bonus points.

The longer the word is, the more valuable the bonus tile.


 * Copper tiles drop when a 4-tile word is formed.
 * Silver tiles drop when a 5- or 6-tile word is formed.


 * Gold tiles drop when a word with 7 or more tiles is formed.

Trivia

 * Bookworm, a similar word game, also uses bonus tiles as rewards. However, instead of metals increasing in value, there are green bonuses, gold tiles, sapphire tiles, and diamond tiles.
 * Note that bonuses are counted by tiles, not letters. So the word QUICKER would only be worth a silver, not a gold, since “Qu”, despite being two letters, is one tile.Bookgold.jpg
