The aim of the crucipuzzle game (or twisted words) is to find and delete some predetermined words among a set of letters, usually shown separately. Once you find all the words in the puzzle, you should create a keyword/key-sentence with the remaining letters in reading order (from left to right, from top down). Typically, you know only the length of each keyword, for example for the key-sentence "twisted words", the length (6, 11) will be known. iCruciPuzzle brings to iPhone, iPod and iPad the classic twisted words game sticking as much as possible to the real game.
