Read full description

A four-by-four board, two minutes and every word you can find. Slide your finger across adjacent letters — in all eight directions, turning as many times as you like — and each word scores by what its letters are worth, the premium tiles you cross and how long it is. FOUR WAYS TO PLAY • MATCH. Three rounds against a rival who plays like a person: it finds its words within the two minutes, not off an endless list. Four levels, from Robi to Max. • ADVENTURE. A thousand levels across fifty worlds. The board grows, more words are asked of you and the clock tightens. Some levels demand that every word be the same length: five jungle animals, five letters only. • PUZZLES. 309 themed boards — animals, food, music, geography — with the words hidden inside. The list is never shown: you have to know what to look for. • ONLINE. Against a real person. A match lasts up to three days, so each of you plays when you can; whoever never shows up loses. A NEW PUZZLE EVERY DAY The same one for everybody, with a streak if you never miss a day. SIX LANGUAGES, SIX DICTIONARIES Spanish, English, French, German, Italian and Portuguese, each with a real dictionary — millions of words — and its own letter distribution: a Spanish board looks nothing like a German one. It all ships inside the app: playing on your own needs no connection. DETAILS THAT SHOW • Letters are worth what they are worth in each language, not the same everywhere. • Tiles that double and triple the letter or the whole word. • It scores the path you trace, not the best one available: crossing the premium tile or not is part of the game. • Light and dark mode. • Achievements, player level and a record for every puzzle.
