Thread comes to iPhone Duo. Open it like a book: the board and tray on one side, your notebook on the other. Close it and keep playing on the outer display. Fold or unfold it and your game picks up right where you left it. New: the notebook. Every combination you try gets jotted down, sorted by word, and shows which letters are in the right place, which belong elsewhere in the word and which are out. On iPhone, open it from the board. On iPad in landscape and on iPhone Duo when it's open, it sits right beside you. Stuck? After 30 seconds without progress, Thread offers to highlight the letters of one word without removing the others, and you decide how to arrange them. You can switch it off in Settings. Also in this version: · Letters sink when you tap them, and a thread strings them together as you build your word. · From 24 October to 1 November, bats, spiders and the odd ghost sneak into your game, and spooky threads await in Community. Not keen on spiders? You can switch them off in Settings. Thank you for playing. Made with love in Madrid.
