Word Play is a brain-busting spelling game about making words, getting perks, and scoring big. Imagine your favourite word game - but where you get to change the rules and the tiles as you play! [HOW TO PLAY] Click or drag to spell the best and biggest words you can find. Score points based on the value of each letter, and the length of the word. Score enough points to clear the round and you'll get a chance to pick from more than 150 perks! [USING PERKS] Modifiers change the rules of the game, in your favour. Add more tile spaces, build Bonus Points, make Q tiles become QU tiles, and more. Upgrades let you improve, destroy, discard, or duplicate tiles. Or turn them into special tiles like Golden, Diamond, Emerald, and Potion. Gifts add new tiles to your letter bag. Like wildcards, mirror tiles, and the legendary + tile. Combine modifiers, upgrades, gifts, and special tiles in clever ways to score big! [ROUNDS AND MODES] Watch out for devious Special Rounds that require perfect play. Can you reach the end of the game without running out of "Plays"? Or will you have to start again from scratch? Learn the ropes with Easy mode, then try Normal, Hard, Legendary, and Marathon modes. Play with fewer strategic elements in Quick Play - just spell words and try to win medals! [OTHER FEATURES] Includes accessibility features: Use dyslexic fonts, lowercase letters and / or high contrast mode. Get spelling suggestions. And more. Unlock more than 20 achievements in Game Center.
