Love this fresh take on word puzzles!

I discovered this app while searching for screen reader supported games on the Apple Games app. I LOVE this fresh take on word puzzles! And it's FULLY accessible with Voiceover! My only feature request would be to add correct/incorrect sound effects that are played after each guess, and to have Voiceover say, "Correct," or, "Incorrect," after each guess too. Still, FIVE STARS from me!
