Features
Read full description

Scour increasingly complex boards to find the hidden words. Pick a letter and then choose your search tile carefully to reveal all the surrounding tiles and any matching letters. If you're smart, you can reveal letters in several words at once! After each guess the keyboard letter will update to tell you about that letter: - grey means there are no tiles with that letter on the board - green means you've found all the tiles with this letter - orange means there are more to find Look out for hidden bonuses, power-ups, and traps along the way! In "classic mode" you work your way through more and more complex boards, building up your winning streak and high score. Unlock "challenge mode" with a winning streak of 8 or more rounds. In "challenge mode" you can dive in to try yourself against the most challenging boards. Chart your progress in the "Game Stats" page, where you'll be able to see how you have performed over time and check your achievements and leaderboard place in Game Center.
