qrp is a two-sided game played on one device. Sides take alternate turns placing three set letters onto a vertical 3x5 grid. When dropped, letters spread across the grid in pattern. Sides with most tiles at the end of six turns win. Settings and color pairs can be changed throughout the app. Sides can be set to an "easy" or "difficult" computer for single players.
