Untangling TongueTied

What do I do with this ß? How did it calculate 34 points? Why did the game just end? Did I just forfeit my turn by swapping? Where in God's name did you find these dictionaries?!

We're sensing that some of you would like to understand the rules of this game.

As people who hate reading instruction manuals, we resisted at first, trying instead to build features a person can discover just by playing. But slowly we're learning to accept the painful truth that not everyone is just like us, and have thus put together some explanations of how TongueTied ticks. We hope they clear up confusion and pave the way to more points and more satisfying play.
