HORIZON (noun): the range of interest or activity that can be anticipated; "It is beyond the horizon of present knowledge".

In standard Scrabble scoring, HORIZON totals 19 points before multipliers. That sum uses official letter values: common tiles (A, E, I, O, U, L, N, S, T, R) are worth 1, while D and G are 2, B, C, M, P are 3, F, H, V, W, Y are 4, K is 5, J and X are 8, and Q and Z are 10. HORIZON includes premium tiles (Z), which can swing tight games when you cover a double- or triple-letter square.
