Words with missing letters fall from the top. The lowest word is always the next target: fill in its letters before it touches the red line. Every word that gets away costs a life, and you have three. No advertising. No tracking. Plays fully offline. Any real word that fits the pattern counts, not only the one we had in mind. And a letter that cannot lead to any word is refused straight away, so you are never made to finish a word that was already wrong. Three hints per game reveal a letter when a word will not come. A world leaderboard ranks the top fifty. Pick a nickname to appear on it, or play without one.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Word Rage! at none against Wavelength's 10. Word Rage! also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 81%). Wavelength's advantage is chart position (#22 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
