How MLB Heatmap works
MLB Heatmap rewards connections between neighbouring baseball categories. Fill the twenty-four tiles around the central score using local matches. There is no timer or guess limit. Choose useful anchors to maximise your score.
How to play
Choose an unclaimed tile as your anchor, then read its full condition above the player search. The highlighted neighbours share an edge with it; corners and the central score do not create connections.
Name a player who fits the anchor. The game also checks that player against its immediate neighbours, claiming matching empty tiles and reheating matching tiles already claimed. Matches do not spread farther across the board.
Use a fresh player after every successful move. A player can score only once per Daily, although an earlier wrong answer may be tried again elsewhere. The round finishes when all tiles are claimed or you choose Give up.
Scoring
One, two, three, four or five new tiles earn 1, 3, 6, 10 or 15 points. Each matching claimed neighbour adds one point. Heat colours show repeated matches, not a multiplier. An incorrect guess costs one point, with a floor of zero.
Playing tips
Inspect the whole local group before guessing. Larger combos earn more, but claiming a useful tile removes it as a future anchor. Consider which remaining tile could connect your next player to several categories.
