It's a one-time unlock that gets you everything in the game - forever.

Dave’s Word Game 1.0.9 is out now! We’ve added a toggle to the settings so you can show the status bar if you like. No more missed buses due to being too immersed in DWG and losing track of time. This may or may not be a real event that happened.

Good board today! Lots of vowels. I learned this word at a party last night when I met someone who does it. Do reinsurers get insurance? What’s that called?

Big thanks to @lotusloveslotus.bsky.social for the Dave’s Word Game shout-out in VGBees’ GOTY coverage.

It appeared briefly, incidentally, in the letters section at the end… which marketing has assured me is legally indistinguishable from β€œGame of the Year.”
