Hi Alex,
SELECT string_agg(x->>'letter','') FROM json_array_elements(
'[{"col": 7, "row": 12, "value": 3, "letter": "A"}, {"col": 8, "row": 12, "value": 10, "letter": "B"}, {"col": 9, "row": 12, "value": 1, "letter": "C"}, {"col": 10, "row": 12, "value": 2, "letter": "D"}]'::json
) x;
# select * from words_moves where gid=656 order by played desc limit 3;
mid | action | gid | uid | played | tiles | score

by trying the following:
