Countdown Unlimited is a variant of Countdown where, as the name suggests, each letter is available to be used an unlimited number of times, also giving an unlimited maximum length to letters game declarations — as a result, there are no bonuses for words over a certain length. For this reason, there are only seven letters in each selection, and duplicates are allowed, although there is no use for them. Numbers games and conundrums are unchanged.
Countdown Unlimited is available on Apterous.
