## What is Word Head?

The ‘Rubik's Cube’ of word search! It’s like if Word Search and ‘Boggle’ had a baby and made it in 3-D they’d call it ‘Word Head.’  You manipulate a 3-D cube floating in mid air looking for words that can wrap and twist around the sides of the cube. Move the cube up, down, 180 degrees to the left, 90 degrees to the right, there’s nothing like it. Word Head is highly addictive because its rotating 3 dimensional cube challenges players to quickly discover words from either a pre-selected or player-customized list. Find the word, score points. Once you find them all there’s one more hurdle to clear, you must discover a special ‘hidden’ word to win the game.  Word Head has numerous themed word lists to play, with many to unlock through the Alphabet Quest. Each block on the rotating 3D cube has a different letter that can be used to spell a word – whether horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Players can rotate the 3D cube to search for the words listed on their screen. Players also can make their own word lists from an extensive word look-up provided in English, French, German, and Spanish – over 1.6 million words! Share your custom word lists with friends through iMessage. Plus Word Head uses the iOS dictionary to provide definitions for many of the words. And there are numerous Achievements and Leader Boards to rank your Word Head on the Game Center. So have fun, improve your mind and vocabulary, and play Word Head!  Compatible with the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.  Requires iOS 17.0 or later.

### 5/5 — One of the best games in the AppStore

*2022-05-16*

Honestly I didn’t think highly of this game for a while. I thought it was difficult. But it is actually amazing. It is a metaphor for the allspark. Decepticons. God its so good. I cant stop playing it. If we want society to think harder and play better, everyone should be playing this game.

### 5/5 — Word head updated

*2021-12-21*

This game was very fun Now it will not work right. I don’t know if they need to do something. But I have tried everything to get it to work. To bad too. I did love this game. Update! The developers updated this game. Works perfect back to loving this game, Thanksthis game is challenging and great fun.  it is also very educational!11  Enjoyable!1

**Developer response:** 😀

### 5/5 — Fun to play

*2021-10-06*

Love this!

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2020-04-21*

Very nice cube graphic. Challenging. Bonus to be able to create my own word lists. Well done.

### 2/5 — Great concept but....

*2020-03-15*

Great concept, very slick interface, but if there are TWO ways to spell a word (or more) it only accepts one of them. Huge problem there as it leaves you scratching your head as It rejects the solved word. Hate the mystery word too. Limited hints to find it. Very intrusive

**Developer response:** Yes, I see what you mean.  This is more like traditional word search - yes there may be multiple ways to spell a word, but you’re not looking for all the different ways you can spell a word, just the ONE way it’s spelled on the word list (scroll bar bottom of screen).
Thanks for the input.

### 5/5 — Fantastic word game!

*2019-04-03*

Different size cubes, sharp graphics, plenty of word lists to earn by doing the alphabet portion and support was quick to assist me and very helpful.  Try it out!

### 3/5 — Pay for hints are expensive.

*2018-04-09, version 2.24*

Great game but I’m getting turned off by so many games making you pay for hints. Remember when games were .99c each, with free hits. It’s just becoming way too expensive and when you buy the games they get harder so you need hints or get frustrated enough to buy them. 
The games cheap, a couple dollars, the hints...well... I’d rather find developers that are greedy.

### 4/5 — Short

*2017-08-17*

It is fun but game is very short.

**Developer response:** Keep playing the Alphabet Quest to unlock word lists, cube sizes, and other options.
Not short.

### 4/5 — Phonic ally

*2017-05-09*

Phun! No matter how you spell it, it's FUN!

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2017-03-19*

Very awesome game
