Lots of features and options. Thanks! ### 2/5 — What does PCHS mean? *2014-02-12, version 4.0.1* Apparently it's an acceptable Spanish word. I like the option to play in Spanish or French, unfortunately it's hard to take the game seriously when it lists many words that can't be found in a dictionary. Not a big fan. ### 2/5 — Angry Words *2014-01-10, version 4.0.1* My students are driven insane by this game and are threatening to revolt! Help!! Here they come with torches and pikes! ### 4/5 — Word Cup *2013-03-07, version 3.4* Fun game. Easy to play. Difficult to score high I enjoy the challenge! ### 4/5 — Best of breed *2013-02-05, version 3.4* I've played a lot of the boggle clones. This one wins because: Smooth controls Good use of color for new/repeat/bad Best customization of size and time Correct answers given and easy to see current ones Cons: no word lookup, annoying Game Center prompts ### 4/5 — Word cup is fun app *2013-01-15, version 3.4* Game is great to have on phone-can play quickly when waiting somewhere so time goes quickly--a little too challenging for me--quite a few words I've never seen or heard. But overall I enjoy ### 5/5 — Robomom10 *2013-01-14, version 3.4* I like it! ### 5/5 — Me gusta mucho *2012-09-01, version 3.4* Me entretengo x horas :) ### 1/5 — Keep your money *2012-08-11, version 3.4* Though this might be a good game to play against 3 others at the same time, it costs money to buy and I don't know more than one person that has it or that would purchase it...Especially not at the price tag of $2.99 (HA!) that they were selling it for. ### 4/5 — Rrrr *2012-07-23, version 3.4* Really fun and addictive. I would have given 5 stars if the game whittled out some of those words that seem completely made up. ## Frequently asked questions about Word Cup ### What is Word Cup?
