Amazing, but had to reinstall
I would give it four stars because I had to reinstall it because it wouldn't let me enter a word, but it works great and is VERY addicting.
Great Game But...
I love this game and my wife and I play it often. The problem for me is that I keep hitting the little score box in the upper right corner when trying to choose a letter under the box. I then seem to hit the new game bar and lose the game I was working on. I have lost so many good "boards" because of the closeness of the box and the letters. Try it. I admit, I am pretty fast but hate to be penalized when a quick re-design would fix the problem for me and anyone else it may bother. Thanks.

Nice Game But...
This was one of the first games I bought for my iPod Touch and it worked like a charm. However, since the latest update the arrow that appears on the top left side of the screen is no longer lit green. Now when I create a word and touch the arrow nothing happens. Can we get this fixed please as the game is no longer playable.

My favourite iPhone game!
Don't let its modest looks fool you - this unique word game is simplicity itself and supremely addictive!
Gets better as you play it
I thought it was simple at first but the more you play it the better it gest. Scrabble fans will enjoy the strategy and game play in it. Decent price for the game.
Nice challenge
You won't be disappointed at all if you enjoy word building. Not as mind-racking as scrabble as there are more letters with which to work, but better for forming longer more complex words, and thus a better vocab exercise in my opinion. Simple but nice interface, the entire grid of available letters is given from the start so thinking vertically towards later words adds to the strategy. It is just you against your own word making skills, with no time limit, and games are saved where you left off. You can listen to iPod while playing. They have made a fix for the premature ending and this has worked so far. I finally have downloaded a game that will hold my interest.
Update: Purchase checkword app as a nice little word look-up utility to enhance wordtouch. Cheap, since it doesn't include definitions, but verifies usuable scrabble words and has nice anagram look-up features.

Great intention, still behind in execution
This was one of the first apps I bought. I really love word games like scrabble and this one. I wish the interface were a little less clunky, that the game wouldn't end after you're done with all the tiles (levels!), that orientation worked, etc.
Lots of initial quirks were addressed in the update, but it's still far from perfect. Responsiveness has DEFINITELY improved.

Great Game
If you like word games, you'll like this one. It saves the top 10 scores, so there is the challenge to better your last score.
Addictive Game!
What a fun little game, and the price is very reasonable. I'm enjoying the challenge of thinking both horizontally and vertically to make words. App has not crashed or had any stability problems. Well done!
Excellent game
If you like Scrabble, then you will enjoy playing this. It loads quickly and saves your current game on exit. Highly recommended.
