ATM Token

Next: Controls Quick Reference

The ATM token is the simplest token in GeoWords — press a key, get coins.

How to use it

1. Press 4 on your keyboard (the ATM slot in the token dock).
2. The ATM is consumed and a random payout of 25–75 coins is added to your balance.
3. A notification confirms the payout amount.

That's it. No tile selection, no board interaction — just an instant coin injection.

When to use it

• Before a big Randomize: If you need to redraw a large region but you're short on coins, pop the ATM first to fund it.
• To unlock an action sequence: Swap Ends, Reverse, and Cycle all cost coins. If you can see the word you need but can't afford the actions to build it, the ATM bridges the gap.
• Early or late — your call: Using it early gives you more flexibility for the rest of the game. Saving it for a clutch moment can rescue a losing position. There's no wrong time, but there's only one.

Key details

• One per game: You start each game with exactly one ATM token.
• Random payout: The amount is drawn uniformly from 25–75 coins.
• Undoable: Like all actions, ATM can be undone with Cmd+Z — the coins are removed and the token is restored.
