:: URGENT NOTICE :: GET IT 100% FREE during this special launch promotion! ************************** - Gamecenter Included - Full Retina Display - 9 Levels - Completely Free for 48 hours "The Game" is an experiment in puzzles, music and random gameplay that will keep you coming back for years to come. This one is easy to pick up but hard to put down. :: HOW IT WORKS :: Do you remember the game "Simon" from the 80's? Where you have 4 colors and have to match the patterns? Well this game is like Simon after he drinks about 25 red bulls… while being in the dance floor of a club with a world famous DJ playing! The first level is easy. You'll have ONE button and repeat the pattern that you hear. The second level adds another button… and each level gets progressively harder until you have 4 buttons you're trying to match with a banging soundtrack. :: WHY IT'S DIFFERENT :: Everything in "The Game" is RANDOMIZED. That means you absolutely will never play the same game twice. The background dances to the music, the buttons will "go off" in different times every game and the you'll never know what to expect. But at the same time the whole game will be "synced" to the music. The sound track is provided by underground dance music artist, Trey Smith, whose been played by the likes of Paul Oakenfold, John Digweed, Nick Warren and more. With full iPhone 4 Retina display, gamecenter support and more, this is the game that you simply WON'T be able to put down. Try it out before the price goes back up to $2.99!

Verdict

Tangled Words's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
