Two new tiles can make three words
After CAT crosses the centre star, place T below its A and O below its T. The new tiles make TO across, AT down and TO down.
On these ordinary squares, each word scores 2. The move adds 6 points. The opening centre bonus is already used and does not apply again. Every cross-word has to be accepted.
