## What is Word Pursuit?

The clock in the old study stopped at midnight. By morning, Professor Quill was gone.

All that was left: a note pinned to a locked safe, a page torn from a book no one has ever seen, and a single line in the Professor's hand. "Find the pages before someone else does."

You are the only one who can read what they left behind.

Join Pip, the Professor's young apprentice, on a word adventure along the trail of the Word Atlas, a book said to hold every word in the world, now torn and scattered across the land. Every town keeps one of its secrets. A safe that ticks when no one is near. Drums that fall silent at sunset. A letter written in ink that only appears when warmed by candlelight. And everywhere you go, an elegant stranger in a purple coat has already been asking questions.

Who is the lady in purple? Why does she always seem one page ahead? And what was the Professor really searching for?

Every answer is a word. Every word opens the next door. It's a mystery you play one word puzzle at a time.

A MYSTERY YOU SOLVE ONE WORD AT A TIME
• Crack old safes by listening for the click of the right letter
• Solve cryptograms: turn a decoder ring until a coded message finally makes sense
• Warm a blank page to reveal invisible ink, mend torn letters, rebuild a lost map
• Follow the drums deep into Riddle Grove, where every path holds a riddle
• Sweep the beach in a treasure hunt for letters buried in the sand
• Classic word guess, word connect and word scramble games too, done our way, and a Daily Word everyone solves together

THE TRAIL NEVER GOES COLD
• Live Events with painted scenes to restore, one treasure at a time
• Find relics and postcards that lead you to lost towns
• Explorer Cup trails to race up, seasons and keepsake cards
• Send a friend a word challenge, or race other explorers' best runs

MADE FOR EVERYONE
• Family-friendly words and stories, played at your own pace
• Brain games that grow your vocabulary and spelling while you play
• Saved in your iCloud, so your adventure follows you to every iPhone and iPad
• Play anywhere, even offline (Live Events need an internet connection)

The Atlas is waiting. So is she.

Word Pursuit is free to play. It offers optional in-app purchases, some of which include random items; the odds are shown in the game.

Join Pip on a mystery through painted towns, hidden temples and moonlit harbors.
