Not your average Ho-Hum word game!" -- PaperDesk tweet From the husband and wife team that created “Chain of Thought” and “RhymieStymie” comes “iVolution – the evolving word game!” iVolution is easy to pick up but hard to put down. You start with a 2 letter word seed like “AN” and use it to build a word like “FANTASTIC.” Then you select 2 letters from your word, and those letters become the next word seed for your opponent. The words keep evolving, back and forth, a piece of your word becoming part of your opponent's word, then a piece of their word becoming part of your next word. iVolution is incredibly simple yet incredibly addicting. You can play solo against computer opponents or challenge your friends to a word showdown with the online play modes! So what are you waiting for? It's time to join the revolution in word evolution! *7 different power-ups *2 single player modes *2 "Pass ‘n Play" modes *2 turn-based multiplayer online modes so you can challenge your friends anywhere, anytime! *Tons of achievements to earn *Multiple leaderboards so you can compare your scores with the world *Help videos to get you quickly playing like a pro We really hope you enjoy our new game.

Then use the points from that word to fight the enemy drawings, called Scroodles. After you go, its the Scoodles' turn to spell! It may sound simple, but each of the 180+ levels offers a new twist to keep things challenging! Are you smarter than the Scroodles? ** FEATURES ** * FUN CHARACTERS - Control a lonely eraser in his quest to defeat a group of mischievous drawings. Watch as Scroodles are drawn to life at the start of each level, then create words to erase them! Every Scroodle is colorfully illustrated and animated with individual voices and character profiles! * SCROODLE STATS - Each Scroodle has unique stats for health, intelligence, and speed. Some Scroodles also cast ‘Word Spells’ requiring smart strategies to defeat. * POWER-UPS - Randomly generated power-ups add keep the action fresh and challenging. For example, can you find a way to use that 'P' in a word to freeze a Scroodle? * GAME BOARD MADNESS - Every level also has a different 'board' layout that can include board powers such as Double Word or Triple Letter. Can you use that high scoring 'Z' as the third letter in a word to take advantage of the Double Letter square? * COMPETE WITH FRIENDS - See how you measure up against your Facebook friends with level-based leaderboards! Now a note from the Wizard: "Hey Dummy, bad guy here dropping you a quick note. Someone with your IQ should really spend their time mindlessly popping bubbles or swapping candy blocks. Don't bother with this game, my Scroodles are too intelligent. Keep on swiping. Bye." Wow, rude! So, are you up for the challenge? Ready, Set, Spell!
