Word Count!
Read full descriptionHide full description
It seems everyone has a certain, favorite word. And that’s really ok with us. But even too much of an ok thing is…well... bad! You know who I mean--that someone whose conversation goes something like this: “Like, one time, like I, ummm like fell out of a tree, you know? Like and it was like, umm a billion feet high! And like ummm, well, you know, it did kind of hurt when I like hit the ummm ground, you know??” How can you tell them that they’re stuck on a word without completely destroying any self-confidence they might have? (And also get to have a little fun in the process!) That’s what this app is for. Start counting the times your friend says those words they just can't get enough of. Get an even bigger laugh by posting their Word Count report on Facebook! Their self-confidence might not survive, but at least you enjoyed the process!

Welcome to Well Word! Every day you'll get a board of 25 letters. Your goal? Make the best words you can to get the highest score you can! Be careful though, each letter can only be used 3 times. Ok fine, you can use the center letter as much as you want. Think Strategically! Your word multiplier increases if you use the center letter, if your letters are all touching, or if you use 8 or more letters in a word. How high can you push the multiplier? Full Clear! Earn bonus points for each row and column you clear. Earn even more points if you clear the whole board! Share and Compete! After you finish a board, share your results with friends and enemies.
