Each bubble carries a single alphabet. You must form as many words from these alphabets. A valid word formed causes the bubbles to sink some distance, depending on the length of the word formed. The game ends when the bubbles reach the red line near the surface.

You know the drill. Put four things 1) in the right order 2) as fast as you can. Quick & Clever offers an extravaganza of this sort of fun: pure general knowledge trivia, no ads, no fluff, no nonsense. All lovingly crafted for you in Helsinki, Finland. Play it by yourself or – which obviously is exponentially more excitement – locally with the other iOS people in the room. There's a treasure trove of questions already in there (and by the way, no internet required, so play it all those long-haul flights if you want) but we're just getting started here, so expect a lot more in the near or far future!
