About

Jinx Bee

Read full description

Jinx Bee is an open-ended word-association game about trying to say the same thing at the same time. Use each previous pair of words as clues and keep going until you and your friend—or a Bee if playing solo —land on the same answer, or run out of rounds. Jinx Bee has many ways to play: - Play daily puzzles. - Play with friends. - Play with Bees to unlock new play styles. - Track your stats. Daily puzzles are free, games with friends and bees use a drop of Honey. You get some to start, can earn more by playing with new friends, and can support the game through Apple In-App Purchase packs. Any purchase also includes access to the puzzle archive.
