A Word Building Game! This game is a fusion of Tetris and Scrabble type games. Assemble word from falling tiles * Much like Tetris, blocks will fall down, but unlike Tetris, it's letters dropping. * You need to assemble the letters in order to form the pre-selected words. Gain powers and use them to change the board * While assembling the words, you will accumulate powers. * Use one of the powers to destroy unwanted blocks, or slow the passage of time (or both). Cross the words to gain more points * Same way as you would in Scrabble or crosswords puzzle, you can use letters from other words to cross them. * Crossing words gives you bonus points. Participate in the daily challenge * In the daily challenge, you start with 2 words. After each victory, the next level adds another word. * As long as you can assemble all the selected words, you can continue to the next level. * Once you hit game over, your score will be entered on the daily leaderboard. * Earn golden blocks the next day, when you connect, from your previous daily challenge run! Golden Blocks * Golden blocks are earned through the daily challenge. They will appear the next day, when you launch the game. * You can watch an ad after each daily challenge game to gain golden blocks right away. * You will also earn Golden Blocks every day, the amount is tied to your rank in the leaderboard. * Golden blocks are used to refill your powers (like "Bomb" and "Slow") at any point during a game. New Themes * Every once in a while, a new theme with different rules and cosmetic features will be released. * The next theme to be released will be: "Halloween". Score formula * The score is calculated as follow : - 1 point per letter in completed words. - Bonus for each words crossed: - If a 5-letter word intersects with 1 word, it will be worth 10 points. If it crosses 2 words, it will be worth 15 points. - Words only counts once. You can't duplicate the same word to earn more points. Words are directionless * Contrary to Scrabble and crosswords, you can form words in any direction, left to right, right to left, upwards and downwards.
