THE SHORT VERSION

What the solver knows

The plan searches complete games across the 40-use letter budget, comparing states only after they have spent the same number of lives.

It includes smush bonuses and the core end-screen awards: Clean Plate, Unassisted, Beat the Robot, Heavy Lifter or Word Hoard, and PERFECT.

The first move uses the exact current spicy tile. Later spice rolls are random, so deeper scores use their expected value.

After every play, tap the new 🌶 tile shown in Smush. The solver replans the entire remaining board from the exact new state.
