What are other games like Lexigo?

The closest game to Lexigo is definitely The NYT Spelling Bee, as it also features a honeycomb letter grid that you must compose various words from. However, instead of working from hints, you must create as many combinations as possible within a specific time frame, with longer answers giving increased point values.

NYT Connections is also a great word game based on themes, as instead of letters you are given a grid of various words, and it is up to you to join them based on various groups like surnames or types of neckwear.
