There's little left to say about Apalabrados, the first mobile game from Etermax (the same company behind the hit Preguntados) that took Spain by storm. Nearly a decade after its launch, Apalabrados has a large fan base that constantly challenges itself, discovering new words within a true letter salad. If you're one of them, you'll likely find one of the sites we're about to share useful for improving your games.
Apalabrados: Letters and Politicians
Some sources will tell you that Apalabrados is very popular among older people, along with other titles like Criminal Case, and of course Pokémon Go. Others might highlight millions of downloads and the performance issues that its latest version seems to be suffering, judging by the comments on the Play Store. However, I think the best anecdote about Apalabrados is the one that involved two Spanish politicians in December 2012, who were photographed having a full Apalabrados session while they were in the voting of the so-called "Accompanying Law".
Basically, that confirms that Apalabrados is a game that inspires passion, and to which its users return time and time again. With that in mind, we've discovered that some players want an extra advantage, a "training ground" (if we may call it that) that allows them to get words for Apalabrados, and score more points. Are you one of those players? If the answer is yes, I imagine that one of these sites will be of great use to you...
The Best Word-Finding Tools for Apalabrados
Worder
The Worder portal offers support for seven different languages. It also explains simply how to use wildcards (up to 3), or patterns if you want to find a more specific word. The advanced section has options to interpret CH, RR, and LL as separate tiles (Apalabrados rules) or as single tiles (Scrabble). Advertising is minimal and doesn't interfere.
Palabras-Apalabrados.info
A quick visit to Palabras-Apalabrados.info reveals that its language support is a bit more limited (Spanish, British English, and American English), and that patterns are actually "masks." Results are presented in tabs, two or three depending on the use of masks. The first focuses on words you can form with the entered letters, and the second on hypothetical combinations with other letters.
Apalabrados.org
This site is the most interesting in terms of interface, and adds Catalan as a supported language besides Spanish and English. The maximum number of letters you can enter is 12. Wildcards are represented with asterisks, and in the patterns section you use hyphens or dots to form the structure of a word (Note: The letters used in the patterns section must also appear in the available letters). The order of words is defined by letters or score, and as a final extra, Apalabrados.org also exists as an app.
In Summary
With the help of these three portals, searching for words for Apalabrados will become routine. You'll be able to optimize your games and push them to the limit, no matter how strange the available letter combination is. Enjoy!
